i asked the lord - indelible grace music lyrics

Loading...

i asked the lord that i might grow
in faith, and love, and every grace;
might more of his salvation know
and seek, more earnestly, his face

’twas he who taught me thus to pray
and he, i trust, has answered prayer!
but it has been in such a way
as almost drove me to despair

i hoped that in some favored hour
at once he’d answer my request;
and by his love’s constraining pow’r
subdue my sins, and give me rest

instead of this, he made me feel
the hidden evils of my heart;
and let the angry pow’rs of h-ll
-ssault my soul in every part

yea more, with his own hand he seemed
intent to aggravate my woe;
crossed all the fair designs i schemed
blasted my gourds, and laid me low

lord, why is this, i trembling cried
wilt thou pursue thy worm to death?
“’tis in this way, the lord replied
i answer prayer for grace and faith

these inward trials i employ
from self, and pride, to set thee free;
and break thy schemes of earthly joy
that thou may’st find thy all in me.”
