Hymn 491
Do no sinful action
Máṣe huwa ẹ̀ṣẹ
- 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. Amen.
