John 6:15: Thou dost all worldly state decline

Thou dost all worldly state decline,
Thee, I by holy violence take,
Present my heart Thy humble shrine,
And Thee my King by faith I make;
Thou promisest my King to be,
Thou cam'st from heaven, to dwell with man.
And wilt not hide Thyself from me.
But in my ravish'd bosom reign.

Accomplish then Thy love's design,
Set up Thy gracious kingdom here,
And stamp'd with holiness Divine
I bear Thy royal character;
I sink baptized into Thy name.
All earthly dignities despise,
And singly seek with steadfast aim
A crown of glory in the skies.
