| The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? (Jer. 17:9) |
| A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you. (Ezek. 36:26) |
| What saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach. (Rom. 10:8) |
Show us our need, O Lord; how lost, how hopeless,
How poor, how sunk in sin our carnal hearts;
Show us how vain to change our sad condition,
Our best endeavor and our utmost arts. |
Show us Thy grace, the great, the all-sufficient,
Infinite riches for our poverty,
Mercy of God for uttermost salvation,
Weapon that turns defeat to victory. |
