[Unless Thy Spirit Thy truth reveal]

No man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but, &c. —xii. 3.

Unless Thy Spirit Thy truth reveal
That Thou the Lord Jehovah art,
And give me faithfully to feel
Thy Godhead streaming through my heart,
Thee, Jesus, Thee I cannot know,
God over all, made flesh below.
But Thou expiring on the tree
As very man, as very God,
Hast bought the Holy Ghost for me
To' apply, and witness with the blood,
And tell this bounding heart of mine
The blood of sprinkling is Divine.
