Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #279 (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Oh, 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 An 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: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: BEATITUDO
