Great God, our reigning sins control,
From bondage set us free;
Let sovereign grace renew the soul,
And form it all for thee.
In wisdom’s paths direct our feet,
And guide us all the way;
And if new trials we should meet,
Do thou new strength convey.
Upright and just be all our views,
Our thoughts and words sincere;
Be holiness our constant choice,
And sin our daily fear.
Yet will we never make our boast,
Of ought that we can do:
Jesus is all our hope and trust,
And our salvation too.
