Oh what hardness and perverseness,
Still possess my sinful heart ;
Nought in heaven or earth can move it,
‘Till the Lord his grace impart :
|: He can soften, :|
Or can pierce it with his dart.
Take it, dearest Lord, and mould it,
'Till it melt beneath thy power ;
Let it in the new creation,
Feel thy goodness and adore :
|: Own thee mighty, :|
Love and praise thee evermore.
