HYMN 68. To Praise God becomes the Upright.

1

Come let us sing most Joyfully
to God of saving Might,
To raise the Praise of the most High,
becomes all the Upright.

2

'Tis he that justifies all those
who justified be:
But Woe to them who do oppose
his Grace, his Grace so free!

3

Lord not to us, not unto us,
but to thy Glorious Name,

72

Let all the Glory be ascrib'd,
the Honour and the Fame.

4

Our works alass imperfect are,
to Jesus we must fly,
His Righteousness, and his alone
is comely in thine Eye.

5

'Tis Faith whereby we do receive
free Pardon of our Sin;
'Tis he alone who doth Revive
that Glorious work within:

6

But Faith, which doth us Justify,
most Precious Fruit doth bear,
True Faith, O Lord, doth Purify
the Heart, if it be there.

7

Ye Righteous sing unto the Lord,
his Praise do you set forth
And let all People look to him,
to the ends of the Earth.
