INCONSTANCY




Vain and inconstant is my heart,
And apt to go astray;
How oft my wandering feet depart
From God’s appointed way.


If for a moment he withhold
His gracious influence,
My powers are seized with chilling cold,
I lose my best defence.


Then faith grows weak, and fears abound,
And guilt revives within;
Unfit for service I am found,
And prone to every sin.


Lord, at thy feet I humbly fall,
Behold a sinner there;
To thee I look, on thee I call,
And trust that thou wilt hear.


Confirm the things which yet remain,
Not let me hence remove,
Till I a full assurance gain
Of thy forgiving love.
