Stay, thou insulted Spirit, stay
Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 396 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 4:30 Lyrics: 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 whoe'er thy grace received;
Ten thousand times thy goodness seen,
Ten thousand times thy goodness grieved:
4 Yet, oh! 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 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. Topics: The Christian System Repentance and Faith; Deprecating the Withdrawal of the Spirit
Stay, thou insulted Spirit, stay

look on the tears by sinners shed;
and be thy feast to us the token
that by thy grace our souls are fed.

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 14.14.14.14 Appears in 224 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 4:30 First Line: I want a principle within of watchful, godly fear Lyrics: 1 I want a principle within of watchful, godly fear,
A sensibility of sin, a pain to feel it near.
I want the first approach to feel of pride or wrong desire,
To catch the wand’ring 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 pow’r impart;
The mountain from my soul remove, the hardness from my heart.
Oh, may the least omission pain my reawakened soul,
And drive me to that blood again, which makes the wounded whole Topics: Carefulness Used With Tune: GERALD Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/I_Want_a_Principle_Within)
