1 With solemn joy we come, dear Lord,
To breathe our vows this day;
We find in Thee our hope, our Life,
Thou art the living Way.

2 In childhood's pure and blessed morn
Thy gift was shed from heav'n,
When at the sacred font of life
Our souls to Thee were giv'n.

3 And thro' the years Thy wondrous grace
Has followed all the way;
Thy love has never let us go
Tho' we are prone to stray.

4 Forgive, dear Lord, each fault and stain
And cleanse our hearts from sin;
Help us to walk in humble faith
And keep us pure within.

5 O precious Savior, Thine we are,
Thy name we would confess;
Thy Spirit pour into our hearts,
Our youthful lives to bless.

6 O keep us faithful, keep us true
And seal us for Thine own,
That we may stand at last with joy
Before Thy great white throne!

Amen.
