Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCXXIX (1791) Hymnal Title: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns First Line: O that my Soul were now as fair Lyrics: 1 O that my soul were now as fair
As it hath sometimes been!
Devoid of that distracting Care
Without, and Fear within!
2 There was a Time when I could tread
No Circle but of Love:
That joyous Morning now is fled,
How heavily I move!
3 Unhappy soul, that thou should'st force,
Thy Saviour to depart,
When he was pleased with so coarse
A Lodging in thy Heart!
4 How sweetly I enjoy'd my God!
With how divine a Frame!
I thought, on ev'ry Plant I trod,
I read my Saviour's Name;
5 I liv'd, I lov'd, I talk'd with thee,
So sweetly we agreed,
And thou no Stranger wast to me
Till I became a Weed.
6 The Tempter robb'd me, and I must
I fear be ever Poor;
May this suffice, to roll in Dust
Before thy Temple Door!
7 My dearest Lord, my Heart flames not
With Love that sacred Fire;
But since my Love has wore that Blot
Repentance runs the High'r.
8 O might those Days return again,
How welcome they should be!
Shall my Petition be in vain,
Since Grace is ever free?
9 Lord of my Soul, return, return,
To chase away this Night;
Let not thine Anger ever burn;
God once was my Delight.
