- 1Faith adds new charms to earthly bliss,
- And saves us from its snares;
- Its aid, in every duty brings,
- And softens all our cares.
- 2Wide it unvails celestial worlds,
- Where deathless pleasures reign;
- And bids us seek our portion there,
- Nor bids us seek in vain.
- 3It shows the precious promise sealed
- With the Redeemer's blood,
- And helps our feeble hope to rest
- Upon a faithful God.
