| 1 | God created us His vessels |
| | | His expression to achieve; |
| | Thus He made a heart to love Him |
| | | And a spirit to receive. |
| 2 | With our heart we have to love Him, |
| | | With our spirit Him possess |
| | As our life, of Him partaking, |
| | | That Himself we may express. |
| 3 | Satan has our heart corrupted, |
| | | To our spirit death did give, |
| | That the Lord we should not contact |
| | | But by self attempt to live. |
| 4 | Thus the Lord in His salvation |
| | | Heart and spirit has renewed |
| | To recover our receiving |
| | | And our loving aptitude. |
| 5 | It is by our heart’s renewal |
| | | We may God in love pursue, |
| | And in newness of the spirit |
| | | We may contact God anew. |
| 6 | Ever true and pure and single |
| | | To the Lord our heart must be, |
| | Poor in spirit, ever seeking |
| | | God to contact constantly. |
| 7 | Keep our heart, Lord, in love’s freshness, |
| | | And our spirit strengthen more, |
| | That in newness of the spirit |
| | | We may touch Thee o’er and o’er. |
