482. C. M. Alford.

Sincere Worship.

1 O Thou, who hast Thy servants taught

That not by words alone,

But by the fruits of holiness,

The life of God is shown;

2 While in Thy house of prayer we meet,

And call Thee God and Lord,

Give us a heart to follow Thee,

Obedient to Thy word!

3 When we our voices lift in praise,

Give Thou us grace to bring

An offering of unfeigned thanks,

And with the spirit sing.

4 And in the dangerous path of life

Uphold us as we go;

That with our lips and in our lives

Thy glory we may show.
