I.CXXXI | The Psalms of David#I.CXXXII | I.CXXXIII |
1 So let our Lips and Lives express
The Holy Gospel we profess,
So let our Works and Virtues shine,
To prove the Doctrine all Divine.
2 Thus shall we best proclaim abroad
The Honour of our Saviour God;
When the Salvation reigns within,
And Grace subdues the Pow'r of Sin.
3 Our Flesh and Sense must be deny'd,
Passion and Envy, Lust and Pride;
While Justice, Temp'rance, Truth and Love,
Our inward Piety approve.
4 Religion bears our Spirits up,
While we expect that blessed Hope,
The bright Appearance of the Lord,
And Faith stands leaning on his Word.
