Lord, am I precious in thy sight?
Lord, wouldst thou have me thine?
May it be given me to delight
The Majesty divine?
Lord, dost thou sweetly urge and press
My soul thy Heaven to win?
Lord, dost thou love my holiness?
Lord, dost thou hate my sin?
O Holy Spirit! dost thou mourn
When from thee depart?
Dost thou rejoice when I return,
And give thee back my heart?
O happy Heaven! where thine embrace
I never more shall leave,
Nor ever cast away thy grace,
Nor once thy Spirit grieve.
Oh let me Lord, each grace possess
That makes thy heaven more bright,
And bring the humble holiness
That gives my God delight!
