Hymns on the Lord's Supper, 48
From Hymns on the Lord's Supper (1745) · Osborn ed., vol. 3 (1869)
Saviour of my soul from sin,
Thou my kind Preserver be;
Stablish what Thou dost begin,
Carry on Thy work in me,
All Thy faithful mercies show,
Hold, and never let me go.
Never let me lose my peace,
Forfeit what Thy goodness gave
Give it still, and still increase,
Save me, and persist to save;
Seal the grant conferr'd before,
Give Thy blessing evermore.
