The Hymnal ‎#89

89. May we who know the joyful sound

1 May we who know the joyful sound
Still practice what we know,
Not hearers of the word alone
But doers of it, too.

2 By acts of mercy let us show
We have not heard in vain,
But kindly feel another's woe
And long to ease his pain.

3 Thankful that we the gospel hear
And love the joyful sound,
Oh, may its sacred fruits appear
And in our lives abound.
