Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CXXIII (1799) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Lord, I'm defil'd in every part Lyrics: 1 LORD, I'm defil'd in every part,
Barren my life, and cold my heart,
Yet sometimes, through thy sov'reign grace,
I catch a glimpse of Jesu's face.
2 This gives my drowsy heart a spring,
I fain would rise, and fain would sing;
But soon a cloud rolls in between,
All black with some indwelling sin.
3 My notes then faulter on my tongue,
the soul contagion spoils my song;
But Thou, who dost the world control,
Speak but the word, I shall be whole. Topics: Barrenness and indwelling sin; Sin And barrenness Languages: English
