Hymn Context Compare
Perfection is the good
And let the break­ing day pro­long
The li­ons that de­vour.
Weary of in­dwell­ing sin;
In faith your foes as­sail,
Join our pray­ing pat­tern there.
Upon our guil­ty land!
Dear Sav­ior, hear us when we call,
Pierced through and through with bit­ter woe;

wrest­ling

Worthy of all to be pur­sued
The bat­tle soon will yield,
But souls new born arise—
Fail to give me rest with­in.
But all the pow­ers of hell;
Power to work for God again,
If yet there may be hope;
Pour down Thy dew up­on us all,
That we eter­nal joy might know;
