Pursuing Peace

Tune: Stuttgart

(\'Earth has many a noble city\')

1 Peter 3 v.10-12

*********

They that will love life, see good days

Let them refrain tongue always

From evil, and lips no guile speak

No deceit, but humble, meek

 

Let them turn away from evil

And do good, on the Lord call

Let them seek peace, and it pursue

Blessed be peacemakers, \'tis true

 

For the eyes of the Lord they be

O\'er the righteous, He does see

Them, and His ears are open to

Hear their prayers, praises anew

 

But the face of the Lord against

They that do evil, they sense

Of His displeasure, Lord, may we

Seek you will and ways humbly
