Methodist-Hymns-346
1: O JESUS, full of truth and grace,
More full of grace than I of sin,
Yet once again I seek Thy face;
Open Thine arms, and take me in,
And freely my backslidings heal,
And love the faithless sinner still.
2: Thou know’st the way to bring me back,
My fallen spirit to restore:
O for Thy truth and mercy’s sake,
Forgive, and bid me sin no more;
The ruins of my soul repair,
And make my heart a house of prayer.
3: The stone to flesh again convert,
The veil of sin again remove;nSprinkle Thy blood upon my heart,
And melt it by Thy dying love;
This rebel heart by love subdue,
And make it soft, and make it new.
4: Ah!give me, Lord, the tender heart
That trembles at the approach of sin;
A godly fear of sin impact,
Implant, and root it deep within,
That I may dread Thy gracious power,
And never dare to offend Thee more.
