Author: Hart Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #32 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Whatever prompts the soul to pride Lyrics: 1 Whatever prompts the soul to pride,
Or gives us room to boast,
Except in Jesus crucified,
Is not the Holy Ghost.
2 That blessed Spirit omits to speak
Of what himself has done,
And bids the enlightened sinner seek
Salvation in the Son.
3 He never moves a man to say,
“Thank God, I’m made so good,”
But turns his eye another way,
To Jesus and his blood.
4 Great are the graces he confers,
But all in Jesus’ name;
He gladly dictates, gladly hears,
“Salvation to the Lamb.”
