[What is the pleasure of my Lord?]
We pray...that our God would...fulfil all, &c.
—i. 11.
What is the pleasure of my Lord?
What is His will concerning me?
That I in holiness restored,
And pure in heart, my God should see;
Changed by the power of faith Divine,
Should put, with Christ, His image on,
And glorious as my Maker shine,
And dying shout—“The work is done!”
What is His will concerning me?
That I in holiness restored,
And pure in heart, my God should see;
Changed by the power of faith Divine,
Should put, with Christ, His image on,
And glorious as my Maker shine,
And dying shout—“The work is done!”
Father, behold, I calmly wait
Thine acceptable will to prove,
Raised to my first unsinning state,
In perfect righteousness and love:
Thou shalt in that appointed hour
Appear, my spotless soul to seal,
And by Thine hallowing Spirit's power
The work of faith in me fulfil.
Thine acceptable will to prove,
Raised to my first unsinning state,
In perfect righteousness and love:
Thou shalt in that appointed hour
Appear, my spotless soul to seal,
And by Thine hallowing Spirit's power
The work of faith in me fulfil.
