[Why hast Thou apprehended me]
I follow after, if that I may apprehend that, &c.
—iii. 12.
Why hast Thou apprehended me,
And held my struggling soul so fast?
What is the grace laid up in Thee,
Which I shall apprehend at last,
The gospel-hope to which I press?
Is it not finish'd holiness?
And held my struggling soul so fast?
What is the grace laid up in Thee,
Which I shall apprehend at last,
80
Is it not finish'd holiness?
Jesus, that perfect good unknown,
Restless, resign'd, I wait to gain:
But give me strength to follow on,
And strive, and labour, and sustain;
Nor ever from Thine own depart,
Till Thee I love with all my heart.
Restless, resign'd, I wait to gain:
But give me strength to follow on,
And strive, and labour, and sustain;
Nor ever from Thine own depart,
Till Thee I love with all my heart.
