Thy laws, dear Jesus, I have broke,
And cast away thine easy yoke;
Nor threats nor promises could move,
Nor frowns nor smiles, nor wrath nor love.
Soften this flinty heart of mine,
Then cause thy beams of love to shine;
Make me to hear thy cheering voice,
And bid the broken bones rejoice.
Lord, should I perish, thou art just,
But while I tremble, I will trust;
My dearest Saviour let me flee
From sin, the world and self, to thee.
