HYMN 63.
The Seventh Part. Who make Christ their all. Sing this as the 25th. Psalm. 1 Let us make Christ our all, Let's see we him do love; To us let all things seem but small, Let's value him above 2 House or Land, Husband, Wife, Or Children who are dear; Nay him esteem far above Life, And unto him adhere▪ 3 Deny all for his sake, Exalt him evermore, Then shall we him our all so make We never shall be poor. 4 Let's live to him always By whom we all live do, Without him let not one soul rest As pi-as'd with things below: 5 To him let's give all praise, His glory not divide, For God did him to glory raise, To bring down all our pride. ⟨p. 161⟩6 On Ordinances do not rest Without you him enjoy; Let him by us be so consest, Let what will us annoy; 7 Yet hold him fast be sure, Let all go for his sake, And him let's love for evermore, O thus your all him make!
