G

Verse one

GI asked the LorG/Cd that I might Ggrow
In faith and EmloveC and ev’ry Dgrace
Might more of GHis salvation EmknowC
And seek more CearneDstly His Gface

Verse two

G‘Twas He who tauG/Cght me thus to Gpray
And He, I EmtrusCt, has answered Dprayer
But it has Gbeen in such a EmwayC
As almost CdroveD me to deGspair

Verse three

GI hoped that iG/Cn some favoredG hour
At once He’d EmanswCer my reDquest
And, by His Glove’s constraining Empow’rC
Subdue my Csins Dand give me Grest

Verse four

GInstead of thiG/Cs, He made me Gfeel
The hidden EmevilCs of my Dheart
And let the Gangry pow’rs of EmhellC
Assault my Csoul Din ev’ry Gpart

Verse five

GYea, more with G/CHis own hand HeG seemed
Intent to EmaggrCavate my Dwoe
Crossed all the Gfair designs I EmschemCed
Humbled my CheartD and laid me Glow

Verse six

G “Lord, why is G/Cthis,” I trembling Gcried
“Wilt Thou purEmsueC Thy worm to Ddeath?”
“’Tis in this Gway,” the Lord reEmpliedC
“I answer CprayeDr for grace and Gfaith.”

Verse seven

G“These inward G/Ctrials I emGploy
From self and EmpridCe to set thee Dfree
And break thy Gschemes of earthly EmjoyC
That thou may’st Cfind Dthy all in GMe.”
