1 Lord, here am I to do thy will, Incline my heart to thee; O! may I willingly fulfil, What thou commandest me. 2 To eat this bread and drink this cup, As thy bless'd orders are, To work in me a living hope, Humility and fear. 3 Here I commemorate thy death, Partake this bread and wine; Cause me to eat and drink by faith, And make thy blessings mine. 4 Lord, here I view thy love and grace, Astonishing to me: That I a wretch of human race, Should e'er accepted be. 5 Should such a creature as I am, Be made a welcome guest; Dare I such mercies ever claim, To share among the rest. 6 Can I be worthy of such grace! A creature so defil'd; Can that consist with righteousness: That I should be a child. 7 Yes, boundless mercy did provide, That sinners should be free: When Christ the Lord for sinners died. He also died for me. 8 His word and blessed ordinance, Do fully shew and prove: That I with thanks and reverence, Should taste and know his love. 9 O! may my soul be mov'd within, While I partake this feast; My Saviour who saves me from sin, Make me a worthy guest. | Church Hymn Book: consisting of newly composed hymns with the addition of hymns and psalms, from other authors, carefully adapted for the use of public worship, and many other occasions (1st ed.) #CXCII (1816) |
