[The witness of the Lord is sure]

God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them, &c. —xv. 8.

The witness of the Lord is sure
Who only can impart
The faith which makes a sinner pure,
The love which fills his heart:
Proof incontestable He gives,
And all may see and know
That every true believer lives
As Jesus lived below.
By works of outward righteousness
They show the root within,
The Spirit of sanctifying grace
In all His fruits is seen;
His holy name and character
In them the Father owns,
And all their spotless lives declare
They are His genuine sons.
