1. Wilt thou, O man, live hap- pi- ly, And dwell with God e- ter- nal- ly, The ten com- mand- ments keep, for thus Our God Him- self bid- deth us. Kyr' e- lei- son!
 
2. I am the Lord and God! take heed No o- ther god doth thee mis- lead; Thy heart shall trust a- lone in Me, My king- dom then thou shalt be.
 
3. Ho- nor My Name in word and deed, And call on Me in time of need: Hal- low the Sab- bath, that I may Work in thy heart on that day.
 
4. O- be- dient al- ways, next to Me, To fa- ther and to mo- ther be; Kill no man: e- ven an- ger dread; Keep sa- cred thy mar- riage bed.
 
5. Steal not, nor do thy neigh- bor wrong By bear- ing wit- ness with false tongue; Thy neigh- bor's wife de- sire thou not, Nor grudge him aught he hath got.
