Saints, abstain from every sin,
Never with transgressors go;
Keep your garments white and clean,
Now that grace has made them so.
Let no evil hence prevail,
Let the world enslave no more;
All the tempter’s darts repel,
And his wily arts abhor.
Keep the royal law of love,
Be to others kind and true;
While you thus your graces prove,
Others will be kind to you.
Where these virtues never shone,
Every hope of heaven in vain;
Holiness, not faith alone,
Can an entrance there obtain.
