| O for a heart to praise my God, A heart from sin set free! A heart that's sprinkled with the blood So freely shed for me; | | A heart resigned, submissive, meek, My dear Redeemer's throne, Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone; | | An humble, lowly, contrite heart, Believing, true, and clean; Which neither life nor death can part From him that dwells within. | | A heart in every thought renewed, And full of love divine, Perfect, and right, and pure, and good, A copy, Lord, of thine! | | Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart; Come quickly from above; Write thy new Name upon my heart, Thy new, best name of Love. | |
