Hymn 122

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #II.122 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: My God, permit me not to be Lyrics: My God, permit me not to be A stranger to myself and thee; Amidst a thousand thoughts I rove, Forgetful of my highest love. Why should my passions mix with earth, And thus debase my heav'nly birth? Why should I cleave to things below, And let my God, my Savior, go? Call me away from flesh and sense, One sovereign word can draw me thence; I would obey the voice divine, And all inferior joys resign. Be earth with all her scenes withdrawn, Let noise and vanity begone; In secret silence of the mind My heav'n, and there my God, I find. Languages: English
