357a. After Thy Grace

1 After Thy grace, O Lord, I press,
Persistent ev'ry day,
I would be filled with righteousness;
Help me, my King, I pray.

2 Of strength divine I would take hold,
And live in highest peace;
Approach with love and faith so bold,
Unto Thy throne of grace.

3 Awake within me newer zeal,
To seek Thee ev'ry hour,
And let my sluggish spirit feel
The quick'ning of Thy pow'r.

4 Give me not up to mine own heart,
Baptize my soul in Thee,
Let me in Christ secure apart,
And in Him happy be.
