[Can I be angry, and not sin?]

Be ye angry, and sin not. —iv. 26.

Can I be angry, and not sin?
I sin, unless I angry am:

Kindle, almighty Love, within
This frozen breast a sacred flame;
Then on myself my wrath shall turn,
Till Thou mine utmost Saviour come,
With all Thine indignation burn,
And root and branch my sin consume.
