abigail miller - the pilgrim's wants lyrics
i want a sweet sense of thy pardoning love
that my manifold sins are forgiv’n
that christ as my advocate pleadeth above
that my name is recorded in heav’n
i want every moment to feel
that thy spirit resides in my heart
that his power is present to cleanse and to heal
and newness of life to impart
chorus:
i want — oh! i want to attain
some likeness my savior to thee!
that longed for resemblance once more to regain
thy comeliness put upon me
i want thine own hand to unbind
each tie to terrestrial things
too tenderly cherished, too closely entwined
where my heart so tenaciously clings
i want by my aspect serene
my actions and words, to declare
that my treasure is placed in a country unseen
that my heart’s best affections are there
chorus
i want as a trav’ler to haste
straight onward, nor pause on my way;
nor forethought in anxious contrivance to waste
on the tent only pitched for a day
i want–and this sums up my prayer–
to glorify thee till i die
then calmly to yield up my soul to thy care
and breathe out in faith my last sigh
chorus
