Can aught beneath a power divine
The stubborn will subdue.
'Tis thine, eternal Spirit, thine
To form the heart anew.
'Tis thine the passions to recal,
And upward bid them rise;
And make the scales of error fall
From reason's darkened eyes.
To chase the shades of death away.
And bid the sinner live,
A beam of heaven, a vital ray —
'Tis thine alone to give.
Oh, change these wretched hearts of ours
And give them life divine;
Then shall our passions and our pow'rs,
Almighty Lord, be thine.
Can aught beneath a power divine
The stubborn will subdue.
'Tis thine, eternal Spirit, thine
To form the heart anew.
'Tis thine the passions to recal,
And upward bid them rise;
And make the scales of error fall
From reason's darkened eyes.
To chase the shades of death away.
And bid the sinner live,
A beam of heaven, a vital ray —
'Tis thine alone to give.
Oh, change these wretched hearts of ours
And give them life divine;
Then shall our passions and our pow'rs,
Almighty Lord, be thine.
