Holy Walk

Author: Dr. Watts Appears in 491 hymnals Topics: Before Sermon First Line: So let our lips and lives express 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 honours of our Saviour God: When the salvation reigns within, And grace subdues the power of sin. 3 Our flesh and sense must be deny'd; Passion and envy, lust and pride; Whilst 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.
