1. My soul, survey the important cause
For which the world was made;
With joy revere God's sacred laws,
Which ought to be obeyed.
His first command to simple men
Is to believe his Son;
To seek a pardon for their sins
Before his gracious throne.}}

1. My soul, survey the important cause
For which the world was made;
With joy revere God's sacred laws,
Which ought to be obeyed.
His first command to simple men
Is to believe his Son;
To seek a pardon for their sins
Before his gracious throne.

 

2.This is the most important thing
Which mortals can pursue;
Present and future joys on high,
Complete and ever new.
This ne thing needful stands impressed
On us by Christ's command:
He bids us choose eternal bliss
Above, at his right hand.
