Psalm 39:14, 15: A Sojourner and stranger

A Sojourner and stranger,
Thou dost Thy creature see,
A short-lived wretch in danger
Of deathless misery:
Like those that went before me,
I soon shall end my race;
But first, O God, restore me
To live the life of grace.

Spare me a little longer,
Till out of weakness made
Than sin and Satan stronger,
I own Thy constant aid,
I feel the sinless nature
Thou dost to saints impart,
And find my New Creator
Possessing all my heart.

Jesus, Thou art the Power
I live but to regain:
Hasten the welcome hour,
Restore the Spirit's reign.
With restless expectation,
I gasp to compass Thee,
The Strength of my salvation,
The Power of God in me.
Thou who hast sufifer'd me so long,
A little longer spare.
Till made by faith divinely strong
I all Thy impress bear:
Then let me from this vale of woe
Triumphantly depart,
My God as I am known to know,
And see Thee as Thou art.
