An alternative to "Ask Jesus into Your Heart?"

I've had an ongoing evangelistic dialog with a couple from Germany--humanists but seriously seeking the truth and wanting to know God (if there is a God). They have responded well to presuppositional apologetics and have moved toward the kingdom. However, they have not entered. If they should come to the point of wanting to commit themselves to God, what alternative is there to an "Ask Jesus into your heart" routine? I'd like to make "grace alone" clear but yet make sure that they understand the concept of lordship. Is there some kind of canned prayer that avoids both easy-believism and works righteousness?
