O for a Heart to Praise My God
The Church of God📖 "Create in me a clean heart, O God." -Ps. 51:10.
Oh, 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 resigned, submissive, meek, My great Redeemer's throne, Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone.
A humble, holy, contrite heart, Believing, true and clean, Which neither life nor death can part From Him that dwells within.
A heart in every thought renewed, And full of love divine, Perfect, and right, and pure, and good, A copy, Lord, of Thine!
Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart; Come quickly from above Write Thy new name upon my heart, Thy new, best name of love.
