Spirit of the Psalms
Psalm 116 (song 3)
Henry Francis Lyte
Redeem'd from guilt, redeem'd from fears,
My soul enlarged, and dried my tears,
What can I do, O love divine,
What, to repay such gifts as Thine?
2 What can I do, so poor, so weak,
But from Thy hands new blessings seek?
A heart to feel my mercies more,
A soul to know Thee and adore?
3 Oh! teach me at Thy feet to fall,
And yield Thee up myself, my all;
Before Thy saints my debt to own,
And live and die to Thee alone!
4 Thy Spirit, Lord, at large impart;
Expand, and raise, and fill my heart;
So may I hope my life shall be
Some faint return, O Lord, to Thee.
Henry Francis Lyte, 1834.
