My Heaven on earth, my Heaven above I
Help me, Saviour, speak the word,
And perfect me in love.
6 Grant me now the bliss to feel
Of those that are in thee ;
Son of God, thyself reveal,
Engrave thy name on me ;
As in heaven be here adored,
And let me now the promise prove ;
Help me, Saviour, speak the word,
And perfect me in love.
HYMN 355. J's.
Phil. ii. 5.
1 TESU, shall I never be
** Firmly grounded upon thee ?
Never by thy work abide,
Never in thy wounds reside ?
2 O how wavering is my mind,
Toss'd about with every wind !
O how quickly doth my heart
From the living God depart !
3 Jesu, let my nature feel,
Thou art God unchangeable :
Jah, Jehovah, great I AM,
Speak into my soul thy Name.
4 Grant that every moment I
May believe, and feel thee nigh 5
Steadfastly behold thy face,
'Stablish'd with abiding grace.
33$ Seeking for full Redemption
5 Plant, and root, and fix in me
All the mind that was in thee ;
Settled peace I then shall find ,
Jesu's is a quiet mind.
6 Anger I no more shall feel,
Always even, always still,
Meekly on my God reclined ;
Jesu's is a gentle mind.
7 I shall suffer and fulfil
All my Father's gracious will ;
Be in all alike resign'd ;
Jesu's is a patient mind.
8 When 'tis deeply rooted here,
Perfect love shall cast out fear ;
Fear doth servile spirits bind ;
Jesu's is a noble mind.
9 When I feel it fix'd within,
I shall have no power to sin ;
How shall sin an entrance find ?
Jesu's is a spotless mind.
10 I shall nothing know beside
Jesus, and him crucified ;
Perfectly to him be join'd ;
Jesu's is a loving mind.
Ill shall triumph evermore,
Gratefully my God adore, --
God so good, so true, so kind :
Jesu's is a thankful mind.
12 Lowly, loving, meek, and pure
I shall to the end endure ;
Be no more to sin inclined ;
Jesu's is a constant mind.
Seeking for full Redemption. SSi)
13 I shall fully be restored
To the image of my Lord ;
Witnessing to all mankind,
Jesu's is &. perfect mind.
