[My God, from whom the precept came]

The word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, &c. —xxx. 14.

My God, from whom the precept came,
Doth power Divine therewith impart,
When Jesus I desire, and name,
The word is in my mouth and heart;
I feel it intimately near,
Soon as my heart believes Him true,
And conscious of His presence here,
Through Jesus I can all things do.
