1. When all my past days to review,
And ponder my ways I begin,
The further I search I pursue,
I trace but corruption and sin.

2. Soon as from the womb I was brought,
My race was in evil begun:
My Spirit with frowardness fraught,
And falsehood beguiled my tongue.

 

3. To manhood from youth as I grew,
My reason to passion the slave:
As custom, as fashion still drew,
I rush down the steep to the grave.

4. My conscience, that monitor true,
Remonstrates, but little avails:
The good which I would, I can't do,
The evil I would not, prevails.

 

5. Then take me, Lord, such as I am,
And make me just what I should be;
I'll take to my self all the shame,
And give all the glory to thee.
