My God! My God! And Can It Be
That I Should Sin So Lightly Now,
And Think No More Of Evil Thoughts
Than Of The Wind That Waves The Bough?
I Walk The Earth With Lightsome Step,
Smile At The Sunshine, Breathe The Air,
Do My Own Will, Nor Ever Heed
Gethsemane And Thy Long Prayer.
Shall It Be Always Thus, O Lord?
Wilt Thou Not Work This Hour In Me
The Grace Thy Passion Merited,
Hatred Of Self, And Love Of Thee!
Ever When Tempted, Make Me See,
Beneath The Olive’s Moon-Pierced Shade,
My God, Alone, Outstretched, And Bruised,
And Bleeding, On The Earth He Made;
And Make Me Feel It Was My Sin,
As Though No Other Sins There Were,
That Was To Him Who Bears The World
A Load That He Could Scarcely Bear.
