I want a principle within

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-88) Appears in 224 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I want a principle within Of jealous, godly fear, A sensibility of sin, A pain to feel it near. 2 I want the first approach to feel Of pride or fond desire, To catch the wandering of my will, And quench the kindling fire. 3 Quick as the apple of an eye, O God, my conscience make! Awake my soul when sin is nigh, And keep it still awake. 4 O may the least omission pain My well-instructed soul, And drive me to the blood again Which makes the wounded whole.
