Author: Charles Spurgeon Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #67 (2024) Meter: 6.6.8.6 First Line: Lord, I would dwell in peace Lyrics: 1. Lord, I would dwell in peace
On your most holy hill;
Oh, shed your grace abroad in me
To mold me to your will.
2. Your gate of pearl stands wide
For those who walk upright,
But those who basely turn aside
You banish from your sight.
3. Oh, tame my tongue to peace
And tune my heart to love;
From all reproaches may I cease,
Made harmless as a dove.
4. The vile, though proudly great,
No flatt’rer find in me;
I count your saints of poor estate
Far nobler company.
5. Faithful, but meekly kind,
Gentle, yet boldly true,
I would possess the perfect mind,
Which in my Lord I view.
6. But Lord, these graces all
Your Spirit’s work must be;
To you, through Jesu’s blood I call;
Create them all in me. Topics: Epiphany Scripture: Psalm 15 Languages: English Tune Title: TRENTHAM
