Oh, for a heart to praise my God

Oh

for a heart to praise my God

A heart from sin set free

With conscience sprinkled by the blood

So freely shed for me.

A heart resigned

submissive

meek

My dear Redeemer’s throne;

Where only Christ is heard to speak

Where Jesus reigns alone.

A humble

lowly

contrite heart

Believing

true

and clean

Which neither death nor life can part

From Him that dwells within.

A heart in every thought renewed

And filled with love divine;

Perfect and right

and pure and good

A copy

Lord

of Thine.

Thy nature

gracious Lord

impart

Come quickly from above;

Write Thy new name upon my heart

Thy new

best name of Love.
