WAY vain Thoughts, that ftir within,
Nor further can proceed!

How fhall I longer live in Sin,
Who unto Sin am dead?

Buried with JESUS CHRIST I am,
And I with Him awake.

Rofe, and regain'd the Skies :

And lo! with CHRIST 1 rife.

And by His Spirit breathe.

With JESUS crucified,

Kill'd my dear LORD

With Him by Faith I live,

The Power He purchas'd with His Blood

Or in my Body reign;
Beneath its Yoke I fcorn to bow,
And all its Force difdain.

No more I groan, and grieve,
By Grace I am redeem'd and fav'd,
And under Grace I live.

That I from Sin's Oppreffion freed
Might only ferve my LORD.

My thankful Homage pay,
My only Mafter, CHRIST I own,
And Him will I obey.

12. To Him my Body I prefent,
Which He will not refuse;
The meanest, basest Instrument
His Glory deigns to ufe.

13. Servant of Sin too long I was,
But CHRIST hath fet me free;
Glory to His Victorious Grace
Which freely ransom'd me.

14. For ever be His Name ador'd
For what I have receiv'd;
I have embrac'd the Gofpel-Word,
And with my Heart believ'd.

From off my Soul the Fetters broke, And now I ferve my GoD.

And All in Heaven shall end.
