My God accept my early vows | D |
Like morning incense in thine house | E |
And let my nightly worship rise | F |
Sweet as the evening sacrifice | G |

Watch o'er my lips and guard them Lord | H |
From every rash and heedless word | I |

O may the righteous when I stray | K |
Smite and reprove my wand'ring way | K |

Shall never bruise but cheer my head | J |

I'll cry to heav'n for their relief | A |
And by my warm petitions prove | A |
How much I prize their faithful love | A |
