Author: WattsHymnal: The Voice of Praise #690 (1873)Meter: 8.8.8.8Lyrics: 1 So let our lips and lives express
The holy gospel we profess;
So let our works and virtues shine,
To prove the doctrine all divine.
2 Thus shall we best proclaim abroad
The honors of our Saviour God;
When his salvation reigns within,
And grace subdues the power of sin.
3 Religion bears our spirits up,
While we expect that blessed hope--
The bright appearance of the Lord;
And faith stands leaning on his word.Topics: The Christian Life Growth in Grace; ConsistencyScripture: Matthew 5:14-16
