Stay, Thou Insulted Spirit, Stay (EN 5130)

EN 5130 Stay, Thou Insulted Spirit, Stay

Eph.4.30

Versi Version 1

1

Stay, Thou insulted Spirit, stay,

Though I have done Thee such despite,

Nor cast the sinner quite away,

Nor take Thine everlasting flight.

2

Though I have steeled my stubborn heart,

And still shook off my guilty fears,

And vexed, and urged Thee to depart,

For many long rebellious years;

3

Though I have most unfaithful been

Of all who e’er Thy grace received,

Ten thousand times Thy goodness seen,

Ten thousand times Thy goodness grieved;

4

Yet O! the chief of sinners spare,

In honor of my great High Priest,

Nor in Thy righteous anger swear

T’exclude me from Thy people’s rest.

5

This only woe I deprecate.

This only plague I pray remove;

Nor leave me in my lost estate,

Nor curse me with this want of love.

6

If yet Thou canst my sins forgive,

From now, O Lord, relieve my woes,

Into Thy rest of love receive,

And bless me with calm repose.

7

Now, Lord, my weary soul release,

Upraise me with Thy gracious hand.

And guide into Thy perfect peace,

And bring me to the promised land.
