1. Blessed Master, I have promised,
  
Hear my solemn vow;
  
Take this pledge of mine and seal it
  
Here and now.
2. Strength of mine is only weakness,
  
Thine is strength indeed;
  
Strengthen me in fullest measure
  
As I need.
3. Let no worldly cares nor pleasures
  
Call my heart away;
  
Save me, Lord, and keep me faithful
  
Day by day.
                        
  Charles A. Dickenson
