all who feel the temper’s pow'r;

turn not from his griefs away;
learn from Jesus Christ to pray.

2 Follow to the judgment hall,
view the Lord of life arraigned;
oh, the wormwood and the gall!
Oh, the pangs his soul sustained!
Shun not suff'ring, shame, or loss;
learn from him to bear the cross.

                             thy kingdom come,

                             thy will be done,

                                      on earth as it is in heaven.

                   Give us this day our daily bread;

                   and forgive us our trespasses,

                             as we forgive those who trespass against us;

                   and lead us not into temptation,

                             but deliver us from evil.

                   For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,

                forever and ever. Amen
