435. Be Perfect

1 Be perfect, O believing one,
For so Thy Lord commands,
And when thou bowest at His throne
Lift to Him holy hands.

2 God will unto His saints speak peace,
But let them nevermore,
To folly turn, but seek for grace
To make salvation sure.

3 Be perfect and the Saviour seek
With all thy heart and mind,
Be full of love, obedient, meek,
Long suffering and kind.

4 Be perfect, trusting grace complete,
A perfect Saviour claim;
Live daily at the mercy seat
And conquer in His name.

5 Be perfect, O believing one,
Live with the single eye,
And when thy work on earth is done
There's rest for thee on high.
