No Strength of Nature Can Suffice (EN 4665)

EN 4665 No Strength of Nature Can Suffice

Rom.3.31

Versi Version 1

1

No strength of nature can suffice

To serve the Lord aright;

And what she has, she misapplies,

For want of clearer light.

2

How long beneath the Law I lay

In bondage and distress!

I toiled the precept to obey,

But toiled without success.

3

Then to abstain from outward sin

Was more than I could do;

Now, if I feel its power within,

I feel I hate it too.

4

Then all my servile works were done

A righteousness to raise;

Now, freely chosen in the Son,

I freely choose His ways.

5

What shall I do was then the word,

That I may worthier grow?

What shall I render to the Lord?

Is my inquiry now.

6

To see the Law by Christ fulfilled,

And hear His pardoning voice;

Changes a slave into a child,

And duty into choice.
