Lyics'TIS faith that purifies the heart;
'Tis faith that works by love;
It bids all sinful joys depart,
And lifts the thoughts above.
This faith shall every fear control,
By its celestial power:
With holy triumph fill the soul
In death's approaching hour.
By faith, where'er his hand shall lead,
The darkest path we'll tread:
By faith we'll quit these mortal shores,
And mingle with the dead.
