VERSE 1

Assist my soul, my heavenly King,
Thy everlasting love to sing;
And joyful spread thy praise abroad,
As one, through grace, that’s born of God.

VERSE 2

No, it was not the will of man
My soul’s new heavenly birth began;
No will nor power of flesh and blood
That turned my heart from sin to God.

CHORUS

Praise the Lord for His grace to me
Praise the Lord O my soul
Praise the Lord for the Spirit’s work
My soul is born of the Tri—une God.

VERSE 3

Herein let self be all abased,
And sovereign love alone confessed;
This be my song through endless days,
I’m born again may God be praised.

VERSE 4

O may this love my soul constrain
To make returns of love again;
That I, while earth is my abode,
That I, while earth is my abode,

VERSE 5

And when the appointed hour shall come,
That thou wilt call me to my home,
I’ll joyful pass the chilling flood,
And die as one that’s born of God.

VERSE 6

Then shall my soul triumphant rise
To its blest mansion in the skies;
And in that glorious, bright abode,
I’ll sing as one that’s born of God.
