The Christian's Noblest Resoulution

Hymnal: Divine Hymns or Spiritual Songs, for the use of religious assemblies and private Christians #CXXIII (1802) First Line: Ah! wretched souls, who strive in vain Lyrics: 1 Ah! wretched souls, who strive in vain, Slaves to the world, and slaves to sin! A nobler toil may I sustain, A nobler satisfaction win. 2 May I resolve with all my heart, With all my powers to serve the Lord; Nor from his precepts e'er depart, Whose service is a rich reward. 3 O! be his service all my joy, Around let my example shine, Till others love the bless'd employ, And join in labors so divine. 4 Be this the purpose of my soul, My solemn my determin'd choice, To yield to his supreme control, And in his kind commands rejoice. 5 O may I never faint nor tire, Nor wandering leave his sacred ways; Great God, accept my soul's desire, And give me strength to love thy praise.
