[Jesus, to Thee I cry]

I will put My Spirit upon Him, and He, &c. —xii. 18.

Jesus, to Thee I cry,
The worst of heathens I:
Manifest the gospel-grace,
Peace and joy and love Divine,
Show my heart Thy righteousness
Made by implantation mine.
Thou only canst confer
The promised Comforter;
That Thou might'st to sinners give,
God on Thee His Spirit bestow'd
That with Thee I might receive
All the plenitude of God.
