427. Watch, O My Soul

1 Watch, O my soul! be on thy guard,
In circumspection go,
Press in the footsteps of the Lord,
The world refuse to know;
The world refuse to know.

2 Watch, O my soul! thine inmost tho't,
For thou account must give
For all thou'st spoken, felt or taught,
Whilst thou in earth dost live;
Whilst thou in earth dost live.

3 Watch where thou goest, what thou dost,
The comp'ny thou dost keep;
Be not among the goats, but cast
Thy lot among the sheep;
Thy lot among the sheep.

4 Watch, O my soul! tho' all forget,
Behold the Lord is nigh;
Thy thoughts and love on Jesus set,
And sin and sense defy;
And sin and sense defy.
