HYMN LXXXVI. After a Recovery

Son of God, if thy free Grace Again hath rais'd me up, Call'd me still to seek thy Face, And giv'n me back my Hope; Still thy timely Help afford, And all thy Loving-kindness shew: Keep me, keep me gracious Lord, And never let me go.

By me, O my Saviour stand, In sore Temptation's Hour, Save me with thine out-stretch'd hand, And shew forth all thy Power: O be mindful of thy Word, Thine all-sufficient Grace bestow: Keep me, &c.

Give me, Lord, an holy Fear, And fix it in my Heart, That I may from Evil near With speedy Care depart: Sin be more than Hell abhor'd, Till thou destroy the tyrant Foe Keep me, &c.

Never let me leave thy Breast, From Thee my Saviour stray; Thou art my support and rest, My true and living Way, My exceeding great Reward, In Heav'n above and Earth below; Keep me, &c.

Never let me go, till I, Upborne on Wings of Love, Gain the Regions of the Sky, And take my Seat above: See Thee by all Heav'n ador'd, And all thy glorious Fullness know: Keep me, &c.
