Full of weakness and of sin,
We look to Thee for life:
Lord, Thy gracious work begin,
And calm the inward strife !
Though our hearts are prone to stray,
Be Thou a constant Friend :
Though we know not how to pray,
Thy saving mercy send !
Let Thy Spirit, gracious Lord,
Our souls with love inspire,
Strength and confidence afford,
And breathe celestial fire !
Teach us first to feel our need,
Then all that need supply ;
When we hunger, deign to feed;
And hear us when we cry!
When we cleave to earthly things,
Send Thy reviving grace ;
Raise our souls, and give them wings,
To reach Thy holy place !
