Remember, O Christian soul, that you have this day, and every day of your life--
God to glorify,
Jesus to imitate,
The angels and saints to invoke,
A soul to save,
A body to mortify,
Sins to expiate,
Virtues to acquire,
Hell to avoid,
Heaven to gain,
Eternity to prepare for,
Time to profit by,
Your neighbor to edify,
Passions to subdue,
Devils to combat,
The world to despise,
Death perhaps to encounter,
And judgement to undergo.
