Christian Hymns ‎#357

357. Spring

1 O for a heart to praise my God,
A heart from sin set free;
A heart that always feels the blood
So freely shed for me;

2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek,
My great Redeemer's throne--
Where only Christ is heard to speak,
Where Jesus reigns alone!

3 O for a lowly, contrite heart,
Confiding, true, and clean,
Which neither life nor death can part
From Him that dwells within;

4 A heart in ev'ry thought renewed,
And full of love divine,
Perfect and right, and pure and good,
A copy, Lord, of Thine!

5 Thy Spirit, gracious Lord, impart;
Direct me from above;
May Thy dear name be near my heart--
That dear, blest name is Love.
