Lyics

ALL you that have confessed

That Jesus is the Lord,

And to his people joined 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 prayer.

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.
