[That liberty from sin]
Stand fast...in the liberty wherewith Christ, &c.
—v. 1.
That liberty from sin,
O when shall I attain?
Jesus, be manifest within,
And form my soul again;
Redemption through Thy blood
I find by finding Thee;
And cannot sin when born of God,
And God is born in me.
O when shall I attain?
Jesus, be manifest within,
And form my soul again;
Redemption through Thy blood
I find by finding Thee;
And cannot sin when born of God,
And God is born in me.
Jesus, Thy word I plead,
Thy promise I embrace,
If Thou hast made me free indeed,
Confirm my heart with grace;
Supported by Thy hand,
O may I still remain,
Fast on the Rock of Ages stand,
And never sin again.
Thy promise I embrace,
If Thou hast made me free indeed,
Confirm my heart with grace;
Supported by Thy hand,
O may I still remain,
Fast on the Rock of Ages stand,
And never sin again.
If Thou my bonds hast broke,
My constant Saviour Thou,
Preserve me that to Satan's yoke
I never more may bow,
May never lose the power
Of faith and humble love;
But stand unshaken as the Tower
That hides my life above.
My constant Saviour Thou,
Preserve me that to Satan's yoke
I never more may bow,
May never lose the power
Of faith and humble love;
But stand unshaken as the Tower
That hides my life above.
Confiding in Thy name,
To sin I need not yield;
But able through Thy strength I am
To win the hard-fought field,
My freedom to maintain,
In all Thine image rise,
The summit of perfection gain,
And sink beyond the skies.
To sin I need not yield;
But able through Thy strength I am
To win the hard-fought field,

In all Thine image rise,
The summit of perfection gain,
And sink beyond the skies.
