11188. The Living Principle Of Grace

1 The living principle of grace,
The faith producing holiness,
Now in our hearts doth dwell;
And still it shall in us abide,
’Till saved, and wholly sanctified,
We all Thy fullness feel.

2 Jesus, we steadfastly believe,
The grace Thou dost this moment give,
Thou wilt the next bestow;
Wilt keep us every moment here,
And show Thyself the Finisher,
And never let us go.
