to_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o offer_v themselves_o up_o to_o he_o and_o when_o god_n require_v it_o of_o we_o we_o yield_v ourselves_o to_o he_o and_o desire_v god_n to_o be_v a_o god_n to_o we_o

be_v to_o make_v a_o covenant_n by_o sacrifice_n we_o confess_v we_o deserve_v death_n but_o for_o time_n to_o come_v we_o desire_v to_o give_v up_o ourselves_o to_o do_v and_o suffer_v his_o will_n
