LyicsAnd is the Gospel peace and love?
Such let our conversation be;
The serpent blended with the dove
Wisdom and meek simplicity.
Whene'er the angry passions rise,
And tempt our thoughts and tongues to strife,
To Jesus let us lift our eyes,
Bright pattern of the Christian life.
O, how benevolent and kind!
How mild, how ready to forgive!
Be this the temper of our mind,
And these the rules by which we live.
To do his heavenly Father's will
Was his employment and delight;
Humility and love and zeal
Shone through his life divinely bright.
