Dear friends, as you have owned
The Saviour for your Lord,
And to his people joined yourselves,
According to his word;
In Zion you must dwell,
Her altar ne'er forsake—
Must come to all her solemn feasts,
And all her joys partake.
She must employ your thoughts,
And your increasing care;
Her welfare be your constant wish,
And her increase your prayer,
With humbleness of mind,
Amongst her sons rejoice;
A meek and quiet spirit is,
With God, of highest price.
Never offend or grieve
Your brethren in the way;
But shun the dark abodes of strife,
Like children of the day.
Highly in love esteem
Your pastor in the Lord;
He breaks the bread of life to you,
And labours in the word.
