We turn to Christ anew

To serve him as our King and of his kingdom learn, from sin and every evil thing to him we turn. 2 We trust in Christ to save; in him new life begins: who by his cross a ransom gave from all our sins. Our spirits' strength and stay who when all flesh is dust will keep us on that final day, in him we trust. 3 We would be true to him till earthly journeys end, whose love no passing years can dim, our changeless friend.
