HYMN 211.

[Lord, let me know that happy Man]

Psal. 15. The spotless Saint.

Lord, let me know that happy Man
Whom thou so well dost love,
That he may praise thee here below,
And dwell with thee above.
'Tis he whose Life is free from blame,
Whose works are right and just;
Whose hearts and words are true, and whom
One may securely trust.

375

His Neighbours Credit does not wound
By a detracting Tongue;
Nor in his Infamy delight,
Much less would do him wrong.
Who does not break his Oath when he
To his own damage swears;
But his strict Vertue far before
His Interest preferrs.
Who hates Exaction, and rejects
Bribes to betray the Just;
This Man shall ne're be mov'd, but may
In God securely trust.
