Tune: Song 34
(\'Forth in thy name, O Lord I go\')
1 Thessalonians 4 v.9-12
********
Be as the Thessalonians
To them Paul wrote, and of them owns
As concerning loving each one
Unto each other it is done
They do so, for God does them teach
To love each other, each one reach
And fellow believers elsewhere
They too with them love of God share
The prayer is that they do so more
For this be pleasing to God sure
And that they aspire to lead quiet
Life, loving God and man from heart
And to do their own business, be
Working with their own hands daily
Living honestly in each thing
Prosper, having lack of nothing
