Feigned hearts Thy name professing, Thy commandments cast aside; But we feel Thy great salvation, And in all Thy truth abide. Every word Thy mouth hath spoken Is essential to our life; All Thy mandates love betoken, To oppose them is but strife. In Thy wisdom, Lord, confiding, We will follow in Thy way; With Thy love in us abiding, ’Tis delightful to obey. Each commandment Thou hast given Is a waymark on the road; Leading up from earth to heaven, To the blessed throne of God.

By Thy blessed word obeying,
Lord, we prove our love sincere;
For we hear Thee gently saying,
“Love will do as well as hear.”
- Refrain:
  Dear Redeemer, we would hallow
  All Thy word so firm and true;
  In Thy footsteps meekly follow,
  Thy commands we love to do.
Feigned hearts Thy name professing,
Thy commandments cast aside;
But we feel Thy great salvation,
And in all Thy truth abide.
Every word Thy mouth hath spoken
Is essential to our life;
All Thy mandates love betoken,
To oppose them is but strife.
In Thy wisdom, Lord, confiding,
We will follow in Thy way;
With Thy love in us abiding,
’Tis delightful to obey.
Each commandment Thou hast given
Is a waymark on the road;
Leading up from earth to heaven,
To the blessed throne of God.
