Who walking like their Saviour here
Rejoic’d in active good to live,
Shall boldly at his bar appear
Their joyful sentence to receive:
With more or fewer talents blest
Shall thankfully to Christ restore
The glory of his grace increas’d,
And prostrate at his throne adore.
Who walking like their Saviour here
