The paths of sin I now forsake,
And wisdom’s course with gladness take;
Here perfect safety I shall find,
And peace and pleasure well refined.
Fair Zion’s sons shall be my choice,
For now I hear my Saviour’s voice;
One word of his will cheer me more,
Than all the songs I heard before.
Vile unbelief be swiftly gone,
Now faith and love ascend the throne;
Vain world adieu, for Christ will be
More than a thousand worlds to me.
