Exhortations to Godliness

Since we have the confidence,
To enter holy places;
The blood of Christ as defense,
For God blesses His graces.
By the new and living way,
He opened for us the veil;
Through His flesh that is to say,
He reveals to us detail.
For since we have a priest,
Over the house of the Lord;
Where He does prepare a feast,
For all those in one accord.
Let’s draw near with a true heart,
Of faith in full assurance;
Being able to impart,
To persevere through endurance.
Our hearts are sprinkled clean,
After an evil conscience;
Our bodies washed has been,
With pure water for prudence.
Hold fast to the confession,
Of hope without wavering;
For avoiding depression,
Knowing faith is promising.
Consider how to stir up,
Of one another to love;
Having good works in a cup,
Wondrous potion from above.
Never neglecting to meet.
As is the habit for us;
Together we take a seat,
Urging each other as thus.
Encourage one another,
Seeing the day drawing near;
For the sister and brother,
Without having faith will fear.
