[When we all things do in love]

When we all things do in love,
To man for Jesus' sake,
Then the mind of Christ we prove,
The nature we partake;
Walk unblameable in white,
Fulfil whate'er His laws enjoin,
Comprehend the depth and height
Of holiness within.
Father, send into our hearts
His Spirit from above,

Write it in our inward parts,
The law of perfect love.
Hence let all our works proceed,
All our words and tempers pure,
Then in Jesus' steps we tread,
And then our heaven is sure.
