If some, who gospel doctrine know,
Will talk of Christ their Head,
Yet prove, by all they hourly do,
They are among the dead,
If some familiar tender names
To Christ our Saviour use,
Yet in their lives neglect his claims,
In heart his grace abuse,
We will his holy name adore,
And keep in constant view,
Daily, through grace, to know him more,
And more resemble too.
And while heaven serves with all its ranks,
Of highest seraphim,
We too will offer lowly thanks,
And daily live to him.
