By faith I live, by faith I see

Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 By faith I live, by faith I see, That Jesus gave his life for me; By faith I venture on his grace, And through his blood my sines efface. 2 Yet faith alone will not suffice, To bring me to that Paradise; That heaven, where holy angels dwell, And souls redeem'd from death and hell. 3 Our works on earth are works of love, Which frame our minds for things above, And if we would on Christ depend, His blessed voice we should attend. 4 To blend the two in one we see, How faith and works do sweet agree; And through their influence we shall find, A God most gracious, good and kind. 5 Them let us learn to watch and pray, And strive to walk the narrow way; And if we would true pleasure find, Our sins must all be left behind. 6 Thus when we leave this world of woe, A witness we shall leave below; That ages yet unborn may see, The right we have to liberty. A Selection of Hymns, from Various Authors, Supplementary for the use of Christians. 1st Ed., 1816
