Sincerity and truth

Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns #CLXVII (1802) Topics: Sincerity; Truth and sincerity; Sincerity; Truth and sincerity First Line: Let those who bear the Christian name Lyrics: 1 Let those who bear the Christian name Their holy vows fulfil: The saints, the followers of the lamb, Are men of honor still. 2 True to the solemn oaths they take, Tho' to their hurt they swear: Constant and just to all they speak, For God and angels hear. 3 Still with their lips their hearts agree, Nor flattering words devise: They know the God of truth can see Thro' every false disguise. 4 From all deceit they swiftly fly, What ever shape it wears, They love the truth--and when they die, Eternal life is theirs. 5 Lo! from afar the Lord descends, And brings the judgment down; He bids his saints, his faithful friends, Rise and possess their crown. 6 While satan trembles at the sight, And devils wish to die, Where will the faithless hypocrite And guilty liar fly?
