Deluded souls, that dream of heav'n

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 184 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Deluded souls, that dream of heav'n, And make their empty boast Of inward joys, and sins forgiv'n, While they are slaves to lust! 2 Vain are our fancies, airy flights, If faith be cold and dead; None but a living power unites To Christ, the living Head: 3 A faith that changes all the heart; A faith that works by love; That bids all sinful joys depart, And lifts the thoughts above. 4 Faith must obey her Father’s will, As well as trust His grace: A pard'ning God requires us still To perfect holiness. Topics: The Catechism Faith; Second Sunday in Lent; Second Sunday after Easter; Fifth Sunday after Easter; Sixth Sunday after Trinity; Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Used With Tune: BYEFIELD
