Christian Perfection Justifying Grace Pneumatology Trinity
And with thine own abide : Holy Ghost, to make thee room, Our hearts we open wide ; Thee, and only thee request, To every asking sinner given ; Come, our life, and peace, and rest, Our all in earth and heaven. HYMN 414. 7's8f6}s. 1 1VTOW, ev'n now, I yield, I yield, -^ With all my sins to part ; Jesus, speak my pardon seal'd, And purify my heart ; Purge the love of sin away ; I'hen I into nothing fall ; Then I see the perfect day, And Christ is all in all. oV4r Seeking for full Redemption. 2 Jesus, now our hearts inspire Witli that pure love of thine; Kindle now the heavenly fire, To brighten and refine ; Purify our faith like gold ; All the dross of sin remove ; Melt our spirits down, and mould Into thy perfect love. HYMN 415. c. m. 1 TESUS hath died that I might live, «J Might live to God alone ; In him eternal life receive, And be in spirit one. 2 Saviour, I thank thee for the grace, * The gift unspeakable ! And wait with arms of faith to' embrace, And all thy love to feel. 3 My soul breaks out in strong desire The perfect bliss to prove ; My longing heart is all on fire To be dissolved in love. 4 Give me thyself ; from every boast, From every wish set free : Let all I am in thee be lost ; But give thyself to me. 5 Thy gifts, alas, cannot suffice, Unless thyself be given ; Thy presence makes my paradise, And where thou art is heaven ! HYMN 416. c. m. 1 ASK the gift of righteousness, *- The sin-subduing power, Power to believe, and go in peace, And never grieve thee more. Seeking for full Redemption. oaO 2 I ask the blood-bought pardon seal'd, The liberty from sin, The grace infused, the love reveal'd, The kingdom tix'd within. 3 Thou hear'st me for salvation pray ; Thou seest my heart's desire ; Made ready in thy powerful day, Thy fulness I require. 4 My vehement soul cries out, opprest. Impatient to be freed ; Nor can I, Lord, nor will I rest, Till I am saved indeed. 5 Art thou not able to convert ?
