Let's Do Right
With the Lord reigning as the foundation of our salvation
Let’s do right* as His children, growing unto perfection
By His sanctification along our holy separation
While walking according to His instruction.
With the Lord talking to us through the Scripture
Let’s do right, anchored upon truth in our learning venture
By His wisdom directing our Bible-based gesture
While standing firmly upon righteousness-posture.
With the Lord assuring our worship victory
Let’s do right, giving Him all the glory
By His favour upon our presence in His sanctuary
While seeking first His kingdom, involving in His ministry.
With the Lord God asserting His heavenly standard
Let’s do right, yielding to Him our testimony’s safeguard
By His security against temptations, indeed hard
While raising His banner in marching forward.
With the Lord setting His sovereign plan’s wondrousness
Let’s do right, showing our willing submissiveness
By His guidance for our faith’s steadfastness
While following Him with humility’s earnestness.
With the Lord welcoming our diligent cleaving
Let’s do right, persevering in our service-striving
By His might enabling our sacrificial giving
While labouring for the Great Commission’s thriving.
With the Lord blessing our faithful stewardship
Let’s do right, being polished as His divine workmanship
By His compassionate partnership of loving leadership
While enjoying His offered relationship and sweet fellowship.
*Deuteronomy 13:18 When thou shalt hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of the LORD thy God.
