I want a principle within

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 232 hymnals Topics: The Christian Character and Life, In General Lyrics: 1 I want a principle within of watchful, godly fear, A sensibility of sin, a pain to feel it near. 2 That I from thee no more may part, No more thy goodness grieve: The filial awe, the loving heart, The tender conscience give; 3 A heart resign'd, submissive, meek, My great Redeemer's throne, Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone. 4 Quick as the apple of an eye, O God, my conscience make; Awake my soul when sin is nigh, And keep it still awake. 5 If to the right or left I stray, That moment, Lord, reprove; And let me mourn, and weep, and pray, For having griev'd thy love! 6 O! may the least omission pain My well-instructed soul; That I may find that grace again, Which makes the wounded whole.
