[Fain would I in my earliest days]

Remember thy Creator in the days of thy youth. —xii. 1.

Fain would I in my earliest days
Be mindful of my God,
My God who made me by His grace,
And bought me with His blood:
That young I may observe Thy word,
And not in age depart,
Come, O my dear redeeming Lord,
And dwell within my heart.
