[Sin, unimproved by grace]
He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same, &c.
—xv. 5.
Sin, unimproved by grace,
I never can confess;
Till Thou repentance give,
Sin I can never leave:
Till Thou the contrite wish inspire,
I never can Thyself desire.
I never can confess;
Till Thou repentance give,
Sin I can never leave:
Till Thou the contrite wish inspire,
I never can Thyself desire.
Thee, Lord, and Thee alone
Author of faith I own;
Thee, Saviour, I confess
Giver of holiness,
Who only dost on man confer
Our souls' eternal Comforter.
Author of faith I own;
Thee, Saviour, I confess
Giver of holiness,
Who only dost on man confer
Our souls' eternal Comforter.
While sever'd from the Root
I cannot bring forth fruit:
But to my Saviour join'd,
The same in heart and mind,
I wait in impotence to prove
The whole omnipotence of love.
