Can I claim to be a Christian


Can I claim to be a Christian,

and love not to read His Word?

Do I not esteem the Son of Man,

That I neglect to know my Lord?


Can I claim to be God’s child,

And desire not to pray?

Before the Throne of grace should abide,

Choosing rather, with the world, to play?


Can I confess myself wholly His,

When on this earth I chase vanities?

Would I really exchange the Lord's bliss,

To gain the world’s dung and cruelties?


Can I claim to be born again by God

And hate my brother and sister?

Brethren whom the Lord bought with blood,

Can I despise them and commit murder?


Can I claim to be saved by grace,

And yet withhold the same mercy shown?

Allowing pride and envy a place,

Or even neglect the Gospel to be sown?


O, His goodness and His grace,

To my sin I'm worn and resent!


O, the beauty of my Savior's face,

To my sin I mourn and repent!
