Verse 1
The thing my God doth hate That I no more may do, Thy creature, Lord, again create, And all my soul renew.
Verse 2
My soul shall then, like Thine, Abhor the thing unclean, And, sanctified by love divine, For ever cease from sin.
Verse 3
That blessed law of Thine, Jesus, to me impart; The Spirit's law of life divine, O write it in my heart!
Verse 4
Implant it deep within, Whence it may ne'er remove, The law of liberty from sin, The perfect law of love.
Verse 5
Thy nature be my law, Thy spotless sanctity, And sweetly every moment draw My happy soul to Thee.
Verse 6
Soul of my life remain! Who didst for all fulfil, In me, O Lord, fulfil again Thy heavenly Father's will!
