[Saviour, Thou seest my heart's desire]
If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, &c.
—xii. 18.
Saviour, Thou seest my heart's desire,
The wish Thou didst Thyself inspire,
Thy word and tempers to receive,
In peace with all mankind to live;
Or if, alas! it cannot be,
Yet O, destroy the bar in me;
In me let wars and fightings cease,
And all my soul be love and peace.
The wish Thou didst Thyself inspire,
Thy word and tempers to receive,
In peace with all mankind to live;
Or if, alas! it cannot be,
Yet O, destroy the bar in me;
In me let wars and fightings cease,
And all my soul be love and peace.
For universal peace I pine,
And breathing in the Spirit Divine,
Meek love to furious hate oppose,
And conquer all my soften'd foes;
As brethren dear, the blood-bought race,
With cordial amity embrace;
And for one further blessing sigh,
In peace with all mankind to die.
And breathing in the Spirit Divine,
Meek love to furious hate oppose,
And conquer all my soften'd foes;
As brethren dear, the blood-bought race,
With cordial amity embrace;
And for one further blessing sigh,
In peace with all mankind to die.
