CCCXLV. Experimental Knowledge communicated.

JESUS, mine Advocate above,
Let me not hear of Thee alone,
But make the Wonders of thy Love
By deep Experience sweetly known.

On Thee my Soul would fix its Eyes;
My Lips would taste thy heav'nly Grace;
Then would I raise thine Honours high,
And teach a thousand Tongues thy Praise.

The sacred Flame from Heart to Heart
Should with a rapid Progress run;
Till each in GOD could boast his Part,
Thro' sweet Communion with his Son.

Thus may the Servants of the LORD
Feel the Salvation they proclaim;
And thus may Crowds receive the Word,
And eccho back the Saviour's Name.
