By A Collection of Hymns

      8s & 6s.
      1 JESUS, let me bless thy name!
      All sin, alas! thou know'st I am,
      But thou all pity art:
      Turn into flesh my heart of stone;
      Such power belongs to thee alone;
      Turn into flesh my heart.

      2 A poor, unmoving wretch, to thee
      For help against myself I flee;
      Thou only canst remove
      The hindrances out of the way,
      And soften my unyielding clay,
      And mould it into love.

      3 O let thy Spirit shed abroad
      The love, the perfect love of God,
      In this cold heart of mine!
      O might he now descend, and rest,
      And dwell for ever in my breast,
      And make it all divine!

      4 What shall I do my suit to gain?
      O Lamb of God for sinners slain,
      I plead what thou hast done!
      Didst thou not die the death for me?
      Jesu, remember Calvary,
      And break my heart of stone.

      5 Take the dear purchase of thy blood,
      My Friend and Advocate with God,
      My Ransom and my Peace;
      Surety, who all my debt hast paid,
      For all my sins atonement made,
      The Lord my Righteousness.
