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. |
|||
2 | A heart resigned, submissive, meek, My great Redeemer’s throne; Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone. |
||
3 | A humble, lowly, contrite heart, Believing, true, and clean; Which neither life nor death can part From Him that dwells within. |
||
4 | A heart in every thought renewed, And full of love divine; Perfect and right, and pure and good, A copy, Lord, of Thine. |
||
5 | Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart, Come quickly from above; Write Thy new name upon my heart, Thy new best name of Love. |

Charles Wesley, 1707-88 |
