Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #20 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Psalm 51:10 Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God!
A heart from sin set free;
A heart that always feels Thy 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.
Amen. Topics: Worship and Praise Adoration; Adoration; Peace; Walking with God Languages: English Tune Title: BEATITUDO
