  1. ''Thine ? Thine for ever'' ? blessed bond
    That knits, us, Lord to Thee;
    May voice, and heart, and soul respond
    Amen, so let it be

  2. When this world strikes its dulcet harp,
    And earth our heaven appears,
    Be ''Thine for ever`, clear and sharp,
    God's trumpet in our ears

  3. When sin in pleasure's soft disguise
    Would work us deadliest harm,
    May ''Thine for ever'' from the skies
    Steal down, and break the charm

  4. When Satan flings his fiery darts
    Against our weary shield,
    May ''Thine for ever'' in our hearts
    Forbid us faint or yield

  5. Thine all along the flowery spring,
    Along the summer prime,
    Till autumn fades in welcoming
    The silver frost of time

  6. ''Thine, Thine for ever,'' body, soul,
    Henceforth devote to Thee,
    While everlasting ages roll
    Amen, so let it be. Amen.
