HYMN 100. A Sacred Hymn on Sanctification.

1

The Fountain of true Holiness
Jehovah is most high;
His Name it is that we will bless
and Praise continually.

2

Thou perfect art, in Holiness
thy Glory let us see,
O shine upon us more or less,
and make us all like thee,

3

Amongst the Fruitful Lillies thou
dost love Lord Christ to feed,
O let my Soul a Lilly be,
no more a stinking Weed.

4

Until the Glorious Morn shall break,
and shadows flee away,
O let the Glorious Lord be mine,
and I ne'er from him stray!

5

O perfect, Lord, thy handy-work,
begun upon my Heart;
Make up thy Jewels; unto me,
thy Image, Lord, impart!

103

6

Turn, my Beloved, to my Soul,
be like a pleasant Roe;
And I will sing thy Praises forth,
whilst in thy Paths I go.

7

A glorious Day is coming on,
when all shall sing thy Praise;
'Tis Holiness thou wilt Perfect,
in those longed for Dayes.
