All-mature;
Wondrous joy, and peace, and rest!
Remember those we love;
With Spir­it filled:
The guilt and pow’r of sin re­move,
And I know it's not much
Let not conscience make you linger,
A nev­er-dy­ing soul to save,
Evermore, O Lord, to Thy serv­ants Thy pre­sence be nigh;
Nor leave the hearts which Thou hast made,
Thus we adore Thee.
That God Him­self hath giv’n,
As fire doth make the bruised wheat,
Grant us the pow­ers of quick­en­ing grace,
That, hav­ing Thee, they know no fear.
When I stretched a line and measured it;
I’ll wash, and purge and pu­ri­fy,
The sov­er­eign right­eous­ness we own.
Not a sin­gle shaft can hit,
The doc­trines are di­vine­ly true,

fit

(Sisters) All situations,
Fit our souls for heav’n­ly bliss?
Fit them for joys above.
And build with­in our­selves hearts fit to sing.
The guilt and pow’r of sin re­move,
Except for a heart singing hallelujah
All the fitness He requireth
To serve the pre­sent age,
end
Nor let us quench Thy sav­ing light;
Banish our weak­ness, health and whole­ness send­ing;
Of end­less life in Heav’n.
So, fit for use by fire, O make me,
Then, when we drop this dy­ing flesh,
What time, ad­ven­tur­ing, they quit
Where were you? Where were you?
end
Since such the will of the Most High;
O Thou gra­cious, wise and just,
Ye Bri­tish isles, who read His love
