[Sound in the faith, though weak and slow]

Because thou hast seen Me, thou hast believed. —xx. 29.

Sound in the faith, though weak and slow,
My feeble faith, sincere I know,
Jesus vouchsafes to' approve,

112

Though long my Saviour I withstood,
He hath the infidel subdued
By manifested love.
Consenting to my Lord and God,
The grace Divine by Him bestow'd
The comfort I receive,
A witness of His quickening power,
The Author of my faith adore,
And consciously believe.
