[Father, inspire my alter'd heart]
I will put enmity . . . between thy seed and her seed.
—iii. 15.
Father, inspire my alter'd heart
With hatred of the serpent's seed,
Of all his works, and all his art,
Of sin in thought, and word, and deed:
Fix the good Spirit in my breast,
The mind of Christ I then shall prove,
Evil with all my soul detest,
And love Thee with a perfect love.
