LyicsAll you that have confess'd
That Jesus is the Lord,
And to his people join'd yourselves,
According to his word:--
In Zion you must dwell,
Her altar ne'er forsake;
Must come to all her solemn feasts,
Of all her joys partake.
She must employ your thoughts,
And your unceasing care;
Her welfare be your constant wish,
And her increase your pray'r.
With humbleness of mind,
Among her sons rejoice;
A meek and quiet spirit is
With God of highest price.
Never offend, nor grieve
Your brethren by the way;
But shun the dark abodes of strife,
Like children of the day.
In all your Saviour's ways
With willing footsteps move;
Be faithful unto death, and then
You'll reign with him above.
