[Thou bidd'st me ask whate'er I will]

God said, Ask what I shall give thee. —iii. 5.

Thou bidd'st me ask whate'er I will,
Thou wilt the thing required bestow:
I ask Thy hallowing Spirit's seal,
I ask, Thy precious Self to know,
I ask an humble, perfect heart,
With all Thou hast, and all Thou art.
