The full Obedience which my Surety paid To God, may That my Righteousness be made. ⟨p. 47⟩A Wretched Sinner would appear in That, Righteous before the dreadful Judgment Seat. Show me thy Way, O Lord, Left that I should Fall by those Mockers that will me delude. To thy Pure Scriptures way, I will adhere, And find the Rule of my whole Conduct there. All the Rebellion of my Heart Subdue; And for thy work, O Lord, my Strength Renew. From thy vast Fullness let my Faith derive Strength to do all things, and to Thee to Live.

May thy Good SPIRIT me Possess, and Fill With Light and Zeal, to Learn and Do thy Will. With His Kind Flames may He upon me Seize, And keep me always on my Bended Knees. May all I am and have, be used for Him Whose is my All, for He did me Redeem. ⟨p. 48⟩To Thee, Good SPIRIT, I lift up my Cries, That thou wilt fall upon the Sacrifice.
