Mistaken Souls, That Dream Of Heaven,
And Make Their Empty Boast
Of Inward Joys, And Sins Forgiven,
While They Are Slaves To Lust!
How Vain Are Fancy’s Airy Flights,
If Faith Be Cold And Dead!
None But A Living Power Unites
To Christ, The Living Head.
’Tis Faith That Purifies The Heart;
’Tis Faith That Works By Love;
That Bids All Sinful Joys Depart,
And Lifts The Thoughts Above.
Faith Must Obey Our Father’s Will,
As Well As Trust His Grace;
A Pardoning God Requires Us Still
To Walk In All His Ways.
This Faith Shall Every Fear Control
By Its Celestial Power,
With Holy Triumph Fill The Soul
In Death’s Approaching Hour.
