Tune: Wetherby
('Lord, I have made thy word my choice')
Colossians 3 v.12-17
*****************
Put on therefore, as God's chosen
Ones, children, women, men
Holy and beloved, tenderly
Mercies and kindness be
Humbleness of mind and meekness
Longsuffering, do bless
Forbearing one another, too
Forgiving each one true
If having quarrel, argument
Not bitter, not resent[ful]
But as Christ forgave you, so do
You also forgive too
Above all put on love, which be
Bond of perfectness, we
Living as one, God's family
Others Christ in us see
And let the peace of God rule in
Your hearts, reside within
Tot his peace you are called in one
Body, thanks to His Son
Let the word of Christ richly dwell
In you, in wisdom well
Teach, admonish one another
Each sister and brother
With psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs
Graceful song do prolog
Sing to the Lordi n your hearts here
worship in lowly fear
Whate'er you do in word or deed
Do all, so be agreed
It be in the Lord Jesu's name
And thanks to God procalim
