Holiness and Grace

So let our lips and lives express

The holy gospel we profess;

So let our works and virtues shine,

To prove the doctrine all divine.

Thus shall we best proclaim abroad

The honors of our Saviour God;

When His salvation reigns within,

And grace subdues the pow'r of sin.

Our flesh and sense must be denied,

And passion, envy, lust, and pride;

While justice, temperance, truth, and love,

Our inward piety approve.

His promise bears our spirits up,

While we expect that blessèd hope,

The bright appearance of the Lord,

And faith stands leaning on His Word.

Amen.
