Christ Our Sanctification

Jesu! my Life, Thyself apply,
Thy Holy Spirit breathe,
My vile affections crucify,
Conform me to Thy death.

Conqueror of hell, and earth, and sin,
Still with Thy rebel strive;
Enter my soul, and work within,
And kill, and make alive,.

More of Thy life, and more I have,
As the old Adam dies:
Bury me, Saviour, in Thy grave,
That I with Thee may rise.

Reign in me, Lord, Thy foes control,
Who would not own Thy sway;
Diffuse Thy image through my soul;
Shine to the perfect day.

Scatter the last remains of sin,
And seal me Thine abode;
O, make me glorious all within,
A temple built by God.

My inward holiness Thou art,
For faith hath made Thee mine:
With all Thy fulness fill my heart,
Till all I am is Thine!
