The Church Admonished.

ALL you who have confessed That Jesus is the Lord, And to his people joined yourselves, According to his word:

In Zion you must dwell, Her altar ne'er forsake; Must come to all her solemn feasts, Of all her joys partake.

She must employ your thoughts, And your unceasing care; Her welfare be your constant wish, And her increase your pray'r. With humbleness of mind, Among her sons rejoice, A meek and quiet spirit is With God of highest price.

Never offend nor grieve Your brethren by the way But shun the dark abodes of strife, Like children of the day.

In all your Savior's ways, With willing footsteps move; Be faithful unto death, and then You'll reign with him above.
