Keep Keen As Mustard
K-eep keen as mustard,
R-emain faithfully ardent;
E-nthusiastic endeavor
S-aves you from being indifferent.
E-agerly stay keen as mustard, let not your walk go amiss;
L-earn to be anxious, for you to gain heavenly bliss.
D-esire to be keen as mustard
I-ntensifies your vigor;
O-n the twenty-fourth of July,
N-ever decrease your fervor:
E-arnestly obey the Lord,
D-espite the travel so hard;
A-llow your heart to glow, and keep keen as mustard.
