In guilt each part was formed

Representative Text

1 In Guilt each Part was form'd
Of all this sinful Frame:
In Guilt I was conceiv'd, and born
The Heir of Sin and Shame.

2 Yet Thou, whose searching Eye
Does inward Truth require,
In Secret didst with Wisdom's Laws
My tender Soul inspire.

3 Withdraw not Thou thy hlep,
Nor cast me from thy Sight;
Nor let thy holy Spirit take
It's everlasting Flight:

4 The Joy thy Favour gives
Let me again obtain;
And thy free Spirit's firm Support
My fainting Soul sustain!

5 Make me to hear once more
Thy kind forgiving Voice:
That so my Heart, from Sin releas'd,
May in thy Strength rejoice.
