16320. My Soul, With Humble Fervor Raise

1 My soul, with hum­ble fer­vor raise
To God the voice of grate­ful praise;
And ev­ery men­tal pow­er com­bine,
To bless His at­trib­utes di­vine.

2 Deep on my heart let me­mo­ry trace
His acts of mer­cy and of grace;
Who, with a fa­ther’s ten­der care,
Saved me when sink­ing in des­pair:

3 Gave my re­pent­ant soul to prove
The joy of His for­giv­ing love;
Poured balm in­to my bleed­ing breast,
And led my wea­ry feet to rest.
