I Want The Adorning Divine
Thou Only, My God, Canst Bestow;
I Want In Those
Beautiful Garments To Shine,
Which Distinguish
Thy House-Hold Below.
I Want Every Moment To Feel
That Thy Spirit Resides In My Heart,
That His Power Is Present
To Cleanse And To Heal,
And Newness Of Life To Impart.
I Want, Oh I Want To Attain
Some Likeness, My Saviour, To Thee!
That Longed-For Resemblance
Once More To Regain
Thy Comeliness Put Upon Me!
I Want To Be Marked For Thy Own.
Thy Seal On My Forehead To Wear;
To Receive That “New Name”
On The Mystic White Stone,
Which None But Thyself Can Declare.
I Want As A Traveller To Haste
Straight Onward, Nor Pause On My Way;
Nor, Forethought, Nor Anxious
Contrivance To Waste
On The Tent Only Pitched For A Day.
I Want, And This Sums Up My Prayer,
To Glorify Thee Till I Die;
Then Calmly To Yield Up
My Soul To Thy Care,
And Breath Out, In Faith,
My Last Sigh.
