336. Take Time to Be Holy

1 Take time to be holy,
Speak often with God;
Find rest in Him always,
And feed on His Word.
Make friends of God’s children,
Help those who are weak,
Forgetting in nothing
His blessings to seek.

2 Take time to be holy,
The world rushes on;
Much time spend in secret
With Jesus alone.
By looking to Jesus,
Like Him thou shalt be;
Thy friends in Thy conduct
His likeness shall see.

3 Take time to be holy,
Let Him be Thy guide,
And run not before Him,
Whatever betide.
In joy or in sorrow,
Still follow Thy Lord,
And, looking to Jesus,
Still trust in His Word.
