[To save my helpless soul from sin]
He will speak peace unto His people, &c.
—lxxxv. 8.
To save my helpless soul from sin,
And my backslidings heal,
Set up Thy kingdom, Lord, within,
Thy grace in me reveal.
That all-victorious righteousness,
That fullest joy impart,
And O, inspire Thy perfect peace,
Thyself into my heart.
And my backslidings heal,
Set up Thy kingdom, Lord, within,
Thy grace in me reveal.
That all-victorious righteousness,
That fullest joy impart,
And O, inspire Thy perfect peace,
Thyself into my heart.
A few good days I long to live,
A witness of Thy power:
My past iniquities forgive,
That I may sin no more;
May never more to folly turn,
Or weak or faithless prove,
Of Thine almighty Spirit born,
And quite absorb'd in love.
