O Jesus, at thy feet we wait,
Till thou shalt bid us rise,
Restored to our unsinning state,
To love's sweet paradise.
Saviour from sin, we thee receive,
From all indwelling sin;
Thy blood, we steadfastly believe,
Shall make us throughly clean.
Since thou wouldst have us free from sin,
And pure as those above,
Make haste to bring thy nature in,
And perfect us in love.
The counsel of thy love fulfil;
Come quickly, gracious Lord!
Be it according to thy will,
According to thy word!
According to our faith in thee
Let it to us be done;
O that we all thy face might see,
And know as we are known!
O that the perfect grace were given,
The love diffused abroad!
O that our hearts were all a heaven,
For ever filled with God!
