LyicsO FOR a heart to praise my God,
A heart from sin set free,
A heart that always feels the blood
So freely shed for me.
A heart resign'd, submissive, meek,
My great Redeemer's throne
Where only Christ is heard to speak,
Where Jesus reigns alone.
O for a lowly, contrite heart,
Confiding, true, and clean,
Which neither life nor death can part
From him that dwells within.
A heart in ev'ry thought renew'd,
And full of love divine,
Perfect and right, and pure and good,
A copy, Lord, of thine.
Thy presence, gracious Lord, impart,
Direct me from above,
May thy dear name be near my heart,
That dear, best name is Love.
