And what am I? — My soul, awake,
And an impartial survey take:
Does no dark sign, no ground of fear,
In practice — or in heart appear?
What image does my spirit bear!
Is Jesus form'd, and living there?
Say — do his lineaments divine
In thought, and word, and action shine?
Searcher of hearts, O search me still:
The secrets of my soul reveal; —
Scatter the clouds which o'er my head
Thick glooms of dubious terror spread
May I at that bless'd world arrive,
Where Christ thro' all my soul shall live;
And give full proof that he is there,
Without one gloomy doubt or fear.
