Take Time to Be Holy

Author: William D. Longstaff Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 304 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Take time to be holy, speak oft with thy Lord; abide in him always, and feed on his Word. Make friends of God's children; help those who are weak, forgetting in nothing his blessing to seek. 2 Take time to be holy, the world rushes on; spend much time in secret with Jesus alone; by looking to Jesus, like him thou shalt be; thy friends in thy conduct his likeness shall see. 3 Take time to be holy, let him be thy guide, and run not before him, whatever betide; in joy or in sorrow still follow thy Lord, and, looking to Jesus, still trust in his Word. 4 Take time to be holy, be calm in thy soul, each thought and each motive beneath his control; thus led by his Spirit to fountains of love, thou soon shalt be fitted for service above.
