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.
