Spirit of Faith, Come Down

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 160 hymnals Topics: Sanctifying Grace Lyrics: 1 Spirit of faith, come down, reveal the things of God, and make to us the God-head known, and witness with the blood. 'Tis Thine the blood to'apply and give us eyes to see, who did for ev'ry sinner die hath surely died for me. 2 No one can truly say that Jesus is the Lord, unless Thou take the veil away and breathe the living Word. Then, only then, we feel our int'rest in His blood, and cry with joy unspeakable, "Thou art my Lord, my God!" 3 O that the world might know the all-atoning Lamb! Spirit of faith, descend and show the virtue of His name; the grace which all may find, and saving pow'r, impart, and testify to humankind, and speak in ev'ry heart. 4 Inspire the living faith which whosoe'er receive, the witness in themselves they have and consciously believe; the faith that conquers all, and doth the mountain move, and saves whoe'er on Jesus call, and perfects them in love.

I Want a Principle Within

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 230 hymnals Topics: Sanctifying Grace Lyrics: 1 I want a principle within of watchful, godly fear, a sensibility of sin, a pain to feel it near. I want the first approach to feel of pride or wrong desire, to catch the wand’ring of my will, and quench the kindling fire. 2 From Thee that I no more may stray, no more Thy goodness grieve, grand me the filial awe, I pray, the tender conscience give. Quick as the apple of an eye, O God, my conscience make, awake my soul when sin is nigh, and keep it still awake. 3 Almighty God of truth and love, to me Thy pow’r impart; the mountain from my soul remove, the hardness from my heart. O may the least omission pain my reawakened soul, and drive me to that blood again, which makes the wounded whole. Scripture: Proverbs 7:2 Used With Tune: GERALD
