When men of malice and deceit,
My goings watch, my failings wait,
Let them by my deportment see,
That I, oh Lord, have been with thee.
May I be upright, just and true,
Award to every one his due;
And by my circumspection prove,
Thy holy name I fear and love.
let every thought and word and deed,
From motive uncorrupt proceed;
And should temptations bring new pains,
Oh wash me from my guilty stains.
Dear Saviour, let me see thy face,
Replete with majesty and grace;
And by repeated visits know,
Something of heaven begun below.
