Take Time to Be Holy

Author: William D. Longstaff, 1822-1894 Appears in 328 hymnals Topics: The Christian Way of Life Aspiration and Consecration Lyrics: 1 Take time to be holy, Speak oft with thy Lord; Abide in Him always, And feed on His Word. Make friends of God's children; Help those who are weak; Forgetting in nothing His blessing to seek. 2 Take time to be holy, The world rushes on; Much time time in secret With Jesus alone; By looking to Jesus, Like Him thou shalt be; Thy friends in thy conduct His likeness shall see. 3 Take time to be holy, Let Him be thy guide, And run not before Him, Whatever betide; In joy or in sorrow, Still follow thy Lord, And, looking to Jesus, Still trust in His Word. 4 Take time to be holy, Be calm in thy soul; Each thought and each motive Beneath His control; Thus led by His Spirit To fountains of love, Thou soon shalt be fitted For service above. Amen. Used With Tune: LONGSTAFF
