Holiness. Lev. 19. 2; 1 Sam. 2. 2; Heb. 12. 14
1
The Father is a holy God;
 
His holy Son he gave;
 
Who freely shed atoning blood,
 
A guilty world to save.
2
The Spirit brings the chosen race,
 
A holy Christ to view;
 
And while by faith they see his face,
 
Their souls grow holy too.
3
In holiness the saints delight,
 
While here on earth they dwell;
 
By faith they wrestle day and night,
 
More holiness to feel.
4
The Holy Spirit leads them on,
 
His holy truth to know;
 
Inscribes his laws in every son,
 
And works obedience too.
5
He makes them feel the cleansing grace,
 
That flows through Jesus’ blood;
 
Unites in love the holy race –
 
The new-born sons of God.
