I Want a Principle Within

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #340 (1957) Topics: The Christian Way of Life Aspiration and Consecration Lyrics: 1 I want a principle within Of watchful, godly fear, A sensibility of sin, A pain to feel it near. Help me the first approach to feel Of pride or wrong desire; To catch the wandering of my will, And quench the kindling fire. 2 From Thee that I no more may stray, No more Thy goodness grieve, Grant me the filial awe, I pray, The tender conscience give. Quick as the apple of an eye, O God, my conscience make! Awake my soul when sin is nigh, And keep it still awake. 3 Almighty God of truth and love, To me Thy power impart; The burden from my soul remove, The hardness from my heart. O may the least omission pain My reawakened soul, And drive me to that blood again, Which makes the wounded whole. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: GERALD

Say, why in the valley of death should I weep, Or alone in this wilderness rove? 3 O why should I wander, an alien from Thee, Or cry in the desert for bread? Thy foes will rejoice when my sorrows they see, And smile at the tears I have shed. 4 He looks! and ten thousands of angels rejoice, And myriads wait for His word; He speaks! and eternity, filled with His voice, Re-echoes the praise of the Lord. 5 Dear Shepherd! I hear, and will follow Thy call; I know the sweet sound of Thy voice; Restore and defend me, for Thou art my all, And in Thee I will ever rejoice. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MEDITATION
