The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns ‎#CXCI

CXCI. Charity and Unchartableness

1 Not diff'rent Food nor diff'rent Dress,
Compose the Kingdom of our LORD:
But Peace and Joy and Righteousness,
Faith and Obedience to his Word.

2 When weaker Christians we despise,
We do the Gospel mighty Wrong:
For GOD the Gracious and the Wise,
Receives the Feeble with the Strong.

3 Let Pride and Wrath be banish'd hence;
Meekness and Love our Souls pursue:
Nor shall our Practice give Offence
To Saints, the Gentile or the Jew.
