Do No Sinful Action

Do no sin­ful act­ion

Speak no an­gry word;

Ye be­long to Je­sus

Children of the Lord.

Christ is kind and gen­tle

Christ is pure and true;

And His lit­tle child­ren

Must be ho­ly

too.

There’s a wick­ed spir­it

Watching round you still

And he tries to tempt you

To all harm and ill.

But ye must not hear him

Though ’tis hard for you

To re­sist the ev­il

And the good to do.

For ye pro­mised tru­ly

In your in­fant days

To re­nounce him whol­ly

And for­sake his ways.

Ye are newborn Christ­ians

Ye must learn to fight

With the bad with­in you

And to do the right.

Christ is your own mas­ter

He is good and true

And His lit­tle child­ren

Must be ho­ly

too.
