[He that by faith in Jesus lives]

He that walketh righteously, &c. —xxxiii. 15–17.

He that by faith in Jesus lives,
Doth righteousness attain,
And walks unblamable, and gives
Their due to God and man;
His words as upright as his deeds,
His heart and conscience pure;
On all the joys of earth he treads,
And dwells with God secure.
Beyond the reach of sin and hell
He finds his place above,
Built on the Rock impregnable
Of everlasting love:
Immortal Bread he still receives,
The Spirit's fresh supplies,
And drinks the crystal stream, and lives
A life that never dies.
Go on, thrice happy soul, go on,
That heavenly land to see,
To see the King of saints come down
In glorious majesty,
Fairer than all the sons of men,
Than all the sons of light;
Look—and thy great reward obtain
In that most blissful sight!
