381. How Shall The Young Secure Their Hearts?

1 How shall the young secure their hearts
And guard their lives from sin?
Thy word the choicest rules imparts
To keep the conscience clean,
To keep the conscience clean.

2 'Tis like the sun, a heav'nly light,
That guides us all the day;
And, thro' the dangers of the night,
A lamp to lead our way,
A lamp to lead our way.

3 Thy Word is everlasting truth;
How pure is ev'ry page!
That holy book will guide our youth,
And well support our age,
And well support our age.
