One Simon of old,
Who hoped to deceive,
On hearing the word,
Professed to believe;
His sin and transgression
He tried to conceal,
While yet he pretended
The truth to reveal.
The rite now ordained,
For saints to attend,
Did Simon receive,
Thou worldly his end;
But sooner or later,
The Lord will display,
The hearts of deceivers,
And cast them away.
But come, humble souls,
Who trust in the Lord,
To you now he calls,
And strength will afford;
Let his invitation
Your spirits revive,
And you from the duty,
Shall comfort derive.
