Let Pharisees of high Esteem

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.CXXXIII (1766) Lyrics: 1 Let Pharisees of high Esteem Their Faith and Zeal declare, All their Religion is a Dream, If Love be wanting there. 2 Love suffers long with patient Eye, Nor is provok'd in Haste, She lets the present Inj'ry die, And long forgets the past. 3 Malice and Rage, those Fires of Hell, She quenches with her Tongue; Hopes, and believes, and thinks no Ill, Tho' she endure the Wrong. [4 She nor desires, nor seeks to know The Scandals of the Time; Nor looks with Pride on those below, Nor envies those that climb.] 5 She lays her own Advantage by To seek her Neighbor's Good; So God's own Son came down to die, And bought our Lives with Blood. 6 Love is the Grace that keeps her Pow'r In all the Realms above; There Faith and Hope are known no more, But Saints for ever love.
