Let those that are united to me in tender ties
be precious in Thy sight and devoted to Thy glory.
Sanctify and prosper my domestic
devotion, instruction, discipline, example,
that my house may be a nursery for heaven,
my church the garden of the Lord,
enriched with trees of righteousness
of Thy planting,
for Thy glory
Amen
