'Tis faith that purifies the heart

1'Tis faith that purifies the heart, 'Tis faith that works by love; That bids all sinful joys depart, And lifts the thoughts above.

2Faith shows the promise fully sealed With our Redeemer's blood; It helps our feeble hope to rest Upon a faithful God.

3This faith shall every fear control, By its celestial power; With holy triumph fill the soul In death's important hour.
