Household Consecrated to God

Verse 1

The power to bless my house Belongs to God alone; Yet rendering him my constant vows, He sends his blessings down.

Verse 2

Shall I not then engage My house to serve the Lord, To search the soul-converting page, And feed upon his word?

Verse 3

To ask, with faith and hope, The grace which he supplies, In prayer and praise to offer up Their daily sacrifice?

Verse 4

Saviour of men! incline The hearts which thou hast made, Which thou hast bought with love divine, To ask thy promised aid.
