Could I of all Perfection boast

Hymnal: Christian Hymns, Poems, and Spiritual Songs #I.LXXXIX (1776) Lyrics: 1 Could I of all Perfection boast, As pure as that which Adam lost, I'd sacrifice it to thy Blood, My Christ, my All, my only Good. 2 Were I as Abra'm, strong in Faith, And boldly stedfast unto Death; I'd bid my Faithfulness adieu, And Jesus only faithful view. 3 If I more meek than Moses were, Quite free from Anger, Strife, or Fear; Yet this I gladly would despise, And Jesu's Meekness only prize. 4 Was I as Job submissive, still Patient, resign'd in ev'ry Ill; Yet all should fade before his Cross, Compar'd with Him, it is but Dross. 5 If I was wise as Solomon, Like him with Zeal and Adour shone; Like him I'd vain and foolish see My Wisdom, Zeal, yea all but Thee. 6 Had I an Angel's Purity; Yea even this I would deny; Nor Good confess in Name or Thing, But Christ my Lord, my Life, my King.
