Hymns in Lent - Tuesday in Holy Week

  Jesus, my life, thyself apply,

Thy Holy Spirit breathe:

My vile affections crucify,

Conform me to thy death.

Conqu'ror of hell, and earth, and sin,

Still with the 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;

Difuse thing image through me 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.
