Not all the outward forms on earth
Nor rites that God has giv'n
Nor will of man, nor blood, nor birth
Can make us heirs of heaven.
The sov'reign will of God alone
Makes us his heirs through grace
And stamps the image of his Son
On all his chosen race.
The Spirit, free as is the wind
Unseen and mighty still.
Renerates the carnal mind,
And frees the captive will.
Souls dead in sin, awake, arise,
And live to honour God;
Seek as with eagles wings the skies,
And reach the high abode.
