HYMN 123. Diligence in Duties.

Phil. 2.12. 2 Pet. 1.8, 10.

WORK out your own salvation with trembling and with fear, That barren ye may neither be, nor fruitless plants appear. But use all circumspection that ye may so find out Your Calling and Election, to make it out of doubt.
5, 6.
Add to your Faith the Vertuous Path, to Vertue Knowledge knit: With this advance sweet Temperance, and Patience joyn to it. To Patience add true Piety, with Piety express The Kindness that is Brotherly, and Charitableness.
5, 10, 11.
Besides all this ye may not miss of Diligence in all: For if ye do these things pursue, then can ye never fall.
