Should You Feel Inclined to Censure

Hymnal: LDSC1919 #73 (1919) Person Name: P. P. Bliss First Line: Should you feel inclin'd to censure Lyrics: 1. Should you feel inclin’d to censure Faults you may in others view, Ask your own heart, ere you venture, If that has not failings too. Let not friendly vows be broken; Rather strive a friend to gain; Many a word in anger spoken Find its passage home again. 2. Do not, then, in idle pleasure, Trifle with a brother’s fame; Guard it as a valued treasure, Sacred as your own good name. Do not form opinions blindly; Hastiness to trouble tends; Those of whom we tho’t unkindly, Oft become our warmest friends. Languages: English Tune Title: [Should you feel inclin'd to censure]

And should we die before our journeys thro’, Happy day! all is well! We then are free from toil and sorrow, too; With the just we shall dwell. But if our lives are spared again To see the Saints, their rest obtain, O how we’ll make this chorus swell– All is well! All is well!

All armed and dress'd in uniform, They look like men of war They follow their great General, The great Eternal Lamb; His garments stain'd in His own blood, King Jesus is His name. 4.
