Religion

Summon'd to my heavenly home
Then I shall with joy reply.
Answering to Thy call I come,
Gladly get me up and die.
Made, and bought by grace Divine.
Thine I am, for ever Thine.

Thou who dost my soul require,
Thou who hast my soul prepared,
Satisfy Thine own desire,
Bless me with Thine own reward;
Since Thou canst not rest alone.
Take me, take me to Thy throne.
