TRY us, O God, and search the ground

By A Collection of Hymns


      C.M.
      1 TRY us, O God, and search the ground
      Of every sinful heart,
      Whate'er of sin in us is found,
      O bid it all depart!

      2 When to the right or left we stray,
      Leave us not comfortless;
      But guide our feet into the way
      Of everlasting peace.

      3 Help us to help each other, Lord,
      Each other's cross to bear,
      Let each his friendly aid afford,
      And feel his brother's care.

      4 Help us to build each other up,
      Our little stock improve;
      Increase our faith, confirm our hope,
      And perfect us in love.

      5 Up into thee, our living Head,
      Let us in all things grow,
      Till thou hast made us free indeed,
      And spotless here below.

      6 Then, when the mighty work is wrought,
      Receive thy ready bride:
      Give us in heaven a happy lot
      With all the sanctified.
