Christians, Are the Words You Speak
Henry Francis Lyte • English
Primary Scripture: Psalm 58
Verse 1
Christians, are the words you speak, Like your Master's, kind and meek? Do you judge your fellow-men, As you would be judged again?
Verse 2
Do you in your conduct prove, Children of a God of love, Good and gentle, just and true, As your Lord has been to you?
Verse 3
Ah, the bitterness of sin, Lurks the fallen heart within, And from thence unceasing flows, Poisoning, blighting as it goes!
Verse 4
Lord, the slanderer's malice blast: Let it come to naught at last, Let Your rescued people cry, 'Yes, there is a God on high!'
