4 Forgive, and make my nature whole; 1 St. Peters.] HYMN 339. L. M. JESUS, let thy dying cry Pierce to the bottom of my heart; 2 Slay the dire root and seed of sin; A tender, contrite heart receive, 4 A heart, thy joys and griefs to feel, 1 Swanwick.] HYMN 340. C. M. GThy faithful promise seal! Thy word, thy oath, to Abraham's race, 2 Let us to perfect love restor❜d, And in the presence of our Lord, 3 That mighty faith on me bestow, Which holds, and will not let thee go 4 Till thou into my soul inspire The perfect love unknown: And tell my infinite desire, "Whate'er thou wilt be done." 5 But is it possible that I Should live, and sin no more? The faith shall bring the power. 1 Triumph.] HYMN 341. L. M. FIRST PART. GOD of all power, and truth, and grace, Which shall from age to age endure; Whose word, when heav'n and earth shall pass, Remains and stands for ever sure: 2 That I thy mercy may proclaim, That all mankind thy truth may see: Hallow thy great and glorious name, And perfect holiness in me. 3 Thy sanctifying Spirit pour, To quench my thirst, and make me clean; Now, Father, let the gracious show'r Descend, and make me pure from sin. 4 Purge me from every sinful blot, Cleanse me from every sinful thought, 5 Give me a new, a perfect heart, From doubt, and fear, and sorrow free; The mind which was in Christ impart, And let my spirit cleave to thee. 6 O take this heart of stone away! O take away this heart of stone! The Canaan of thy perfect love. SECOND PART. 1 FATHER, supply my every need; Sustain the life thyself hast giv'n; Oh! grant the never-failing bread, The manna that comes down from heav'n! 2 The gracious fruits of righteousness, Thy blessings' unexhausted store, In me abundantly increase, Nor ever let me hunger more! 3 Let me no more in deep complaint, 4 The painful thirst, the fond desire, THIRD PART. 1 HOLY, and true, and righteous Lord, 2 Open my faith's interior eye; And all I am shall sink and die, Lost in astonishment and love! 3 Confound, o'erpower me by thy grace; I would be by myself abhorr'd; All might, all majesty, all praise, All glory be to Christ my Lord! 4 Now let me gain perfection's height; Now let me into nothing fall; As less than nothing in thy sight, And feel that Christ is all in all ! 1 Turin.] HYMN 342. 6 lines 7's. INCE the Son hath made me free, Thee behold with open face, 2 Abba, Father, hear thy child, 3 Lord, I will not let thee go, 4 Heav'nly Father, Life divine, Be it I no longer now Living in the flesh, but thou. 5 Holy Ghost, no more delay! Paradise.] HYMN 343. C. M. 1 JESUS! at thy feet we wait, Restor❜d to our unsinning state, 2 Saviour from sin, we thee receive, Thy blood we steadfastly believe 3 Since thou would'st have us free from sin, 4 The counsel of thy love fulfil : 5 0 that the perfect grace were giv'n, O that our hearts were all a heav'n, Clarendon.] HYMN 344. C. M. 1 WHAT is our calling's glorious hope, But inward holiness? For this to Jesus I look up, I calmly wait for this. |
