I Want a Principle Within

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 230 hymnals Topics: Renewal Personal Lyrics: 1 I want a principle within Of watchful, godly fear, A sensibility of sin, A pain to feel it near. Help me the first approach to feel Of pride or wrong desire; To catch the wandering of my will, And quench the kindling fire. 2 From Thee that I no more may stray, No more Thy goodness grieve, Grant me the filial awe, I pray, The tender conscience give. Quick as the apple of an eye, O God, my conscience make! Awake my soul when sin is nigh, And keep it still awake. 3 Almighty God of truth and love, To me Thy pow'r impart; The burden from my soul remove, The hardness from my heart. O may the least omission pain My reawakened soul, And drive me to that blood again, Which makes the wounded whole. Amen. Scripture: Acts 24:16 Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN

Pierce the gloom of sin and grief! Fill me radiancy divine; Scatter all my unbelief; More and more yourself display, Shining to the perfect day.
