Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

What conscience dictates to be done 
 What conscience dictates to be done, Or warns me not to do, This, teach me more than hell to shun; That, more than heaven pursue. 
 Let not this weak unknowing hand Presume thy bolts to throw, And deal damnation round the land On each I judge thy foe. 
 If I am right, thy grace impart Still in the right to stay ; If I am wrong, oh, teach my heart To find that better way. 
 Save me alike from foolish pride, Or impious discontent, At aught thy wisdom has denied, Or aught thy goodness lent. 
 Teach me to feel another's woe, To hide the fault I see ; The mercy I to others show, That mercy show to me.
