JESUS, my Life! thyself apply, Thy Holy Spirit breathe; My vile affections...

JESUS, 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 thine 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!
