When we all things do in love

Verse 1
When we all things do in love,
To man for Jesus sake,
Then the mind of Christ we prove
The nature we partake,
Walk unblameable in white,
Fulfil whate’er his laws injoin
Comprehend the depth and height
Of holiness divine.

Verse 2
Father, send into our hearts
His Spirit from above,
Write it in our inward parts
The law of perfect love,
Hence let all our works proceed,
All our words and tempers pure,
Then in Jesus steps we tread,
And then our heaven is sure.
