Christian Perfection Free Will Sanctifying Grace Scriptural Authority
That I shall serve thee without fear, Shall find the pearl which others spurn, Holy, and pure, and perfect here : The servant as his Lord shall be ; All things are possible to me. 6 All things are possible to God, To Christ, the power of God in man, To me, when I am all renew'd, When I in Christ am form'd again, And witness, from all sin set free, All things are possible to me. HYMN 402. 7's8f6's. 1 f\ MIGHT I this moment cease ^S From every work of mine; Find the perfect holiness, The righteousness divine ! Let me thy salvation see ; Let me do thy perfect will ; Live in glorious liberty, And all thy fulness feel. Seeking for full Redemption. O cut short the work, and make Me now a creature new ; For thy truth and mercy's sake, The gracious wonder show : Call me forth thy witness, Lord ; Let my life declare thy power ; To thy perfect love restored, O let me sin no more ! Fain I would the truth proclaim, That makes me free indeed, Glorify my Saviour's Name, And all its virtues spread : Jesus all our wants relieves, Jesus, mighty to redeem, Saves, and to the utmost saves, All those that come to him. Perfect then thy mighty power In a weak, sinful worm ! All my sins destroy, devour, And all my soul transform ! Now apply thy Spirit's seal ; O come quickly from ahove ! Empty me of sin, and fill With all the life of love. HYMN 403. c. m. 1 ORD, 1 helieve a rest remains, ■*-^ To all thy people known, A rest where pure enjoyment reigns, And thou art loved alone : 2 A rest, where all our soul's desire Is fix'd on things ahove ; Where fear, and sin, and grief expire, Cast out by perfect love oo4 Seeking fur full Redemption. 3 O that I now the rest might know, Believe, and enter in ! Now, Saviour, now the power bestow, And let me cease from sin. 4 Remove this hardness from my heart, This unbelief remove : To me the rest of faith impart, The sabbath of thy love. 5 I would be thine, thou know'st I would,
