A Charge to Keep I Have { A Charge to Keep I Have BOYLSTON-Lowell Mason CARLISLE-Charles Lockhart, 1745-1815 IOWA-Amzi Chapin DENNIS-Hans George Naegeli FERGUSON-George Kingsley LABAN-Lowell Mason OLMUTZ-Gregorian chant (arr. Lowell Mason) ST. ETHELWALD-William Henry Monk ST. THOMAS-Composer Unknown A Charge to Keep I Have } A charge to keep I have, A God to glorify, A never-dying soul to save, And fit it for the sky; To serve the present age, My calling to fulfil; Oh, may it all my powers engage To do my Master's will. Arm me with jealous care, As in Thy sight to live; And oh, Thy servant, Lord, prepare A good account to give. Help me to watch and pray, And on Thyself rely; And let me ne'er my trust betray, But press to realms on high.
