Approach, ye piously dispos'd

Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #P.XXXVII (1789) Topics: Instructive Psalms Lyrics: 1 Approach, ye piously dispos'd, And my instruction hear; I'll teach you the true discipline Of a religious fear. 2 Let him, who length of life desires, And prosp'rous ways would see, From sland'ring language keep his tongue, His Lips from falshood free: 3 The crooked paths of vice decline, And virtue's ways pursue; Establish peace, where 'tis begun; And, where 'tis lost, renew. 4 The Lord from heav'n, beholds the just With favourable eyes; And, when distress'd, his gracious ear Is open to their cries: 5 But turns his wrathful look on those Whom mercy can't reclaim, To cut them off, and from the earth Blot out their hated name. Scripture: Psalm 34 Languages: English
