LyicsChrist, like an uncorrupted seed,
Abides and reigns within;
Immortal principles forbid,
The Sons of God to sin.
Not by the terrors of a slave,
Do they perform his will;
But with the noblest powers they have,
His sweet commands fulfil.
They find access at every hour,
To God within the veil;
Hence they derive a quickening power,
And joys that never fail.
