So Let Our Lives and Lips Express

Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Hymnal: The Christian Hymnary #994 (1972) Scripture: 1 John 3:18 Lyrics: 1 So let our lips and lives express The holy Gospel we profess; So let our walks and virtues shine, To prove the doctrine all divine. 2 Thus shall we best proclaim abroad The honor of our Saviour God; When the salvation reigns within, And grace subdues the pow'r of sin. 3 Our flesh and sense must be denied; Passion and envy, lust and pride; While justice, temp'rance, truth and love Our inward piety approve. 4 Religion bears our spirits up, While we expect that blessed hope, The bright appearance of the Lord, And faith stands leaning on His Word. 5 That sacred stream, Thy holy Word, That all our raging fear controls: Sweet peace Thy promises afford, And give new strength to fainting souls.
