LyicsWe now have heard our brethren tell,
How they have 'scap'd the snares of hell-
They all relate that conq'ring grace,
Which gives them in the church a place.
The testimony they have giv'n,
Now proves that they are heirs of heav'n;
Our fellowship to them we give-
Now we'll unite in Christ to live.
Assimulated unto God,
Our feet with gospel peace and shod-
We'll walk in love, the narrow path
That leads from sorrow, sin and death.
Let sinners now behold and see,
How we in Christ, in love agree;
Nothing but sin shall separate
The fellowship we now relate.
All sinful pleasure we'll deny,
Like right'ous men we'll live and die-
Like Angels we shall shine at last,
When all this storm of life is past.
