"Write upon our Hearts"

“Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered to us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshly tables of the heart.”
2 Corinthians 3:3

(87.87.D. Arfon or Corinth)
Translated by Edmund Owen

O, have mercy, gracious Saviour,
Look upon this heart of sin,
Which has nothing more to offer
But the stubborn pride within.
On the wall the dreadful writing,
Words of judgment and despair;
In the balances found wanting,
Jesus, Saviour, hear my prayer.

O, give light and understanding,
Spirit of the living God;
In Thy grace Thy truth revealing,
Open Thou Thy precious Word.
Tell of virtues, grace and kindness
That from Calvary's hill do spring;
Speak of mercy and forgiveness
That my soul may ever sing.

Dip the pen, O Lord of glory,
In the blood of Jesus shed;
Write upon our hearts the story
Of atonement fully made.
Once inscribed upon the tablet
Of our hearts, let none erase;
There unmoved let it be fixèd,
Read for all eternal days.

The Hymns
of W.V.Higham
Published by Tentmaker

“A bound volume of 158 hymns which will make an excellent gift. This great preacher has the compelling tenderness of Welsh sacred poetry buried in his soul. The hymns include exultant praise, reflection and petition. Some were composed during times of sickness, and show the way to revive “sensible” grace when clouds obscure and shadows fall. Excellent for composing the heart for devotions.” Peter Masters
