[Happy the parting minister]
Ye know, from the first day that I came into, &c.
—xx. 18.
Happy the parting minister
Who can to the whole flock appeal,
His own integrity declare,
His life throughout unblamable;
Who dares the world to witness call
Of every word and action past,
And bold appears in sight of all,
One even man from first to last!
Who can to the whole flock appeal,
His own integrity declare,
His life throughout unblamable;
Who dares the world to witness call
Of every word and action past,
And bold appears in sight of all,
One even man from first to last!
O that from instant now I might
The great apostle's steps pursue,
Unspotted walk with Christ in white,
My heart and life and converse new!
My Saviour, evermore the same,
Thy steadfast mind implant in me,
And uniform henceforth I am,
And only live and die to Thee.
The great apostle's steps pursue,

My heart and life and converse new!
My Saviour, evermore the same,
Thy steadfast mind implant in me,
And uniform henceforth I am,
And only live and die to Thee.
