Praying for Confidence. Mark 9. 23, 24

1 O Jesus, thou fountain of grace,
  Enlighten, enliven my heart,
  And show the sweet smiles of thy face
  And from me bid evil depart;
  Pronounce, O pronounce I am thine;
  A sinner once purchased by blood;
  And may I for ever recline
  On the bosom of Jesus, my Lord.

2 Thou great and compassionate King,
  Drive all my sad doubtings away;
  And let me with confidence sing,
  “The Saviour expired for me.”
  The witness that I am thy child,
  O Jesus, to me now impart;
  The pleasing sensation will yield
  Unspeakable joy to my heart.

3 Bestow this rich blessing on me,
  And heaven below I shall prove;
  I’ll then go exulting in thee,
  And tell of thy wonderful love.
  Lord, teach me thy cause to maintain;
  For constant support to thee fly;
  And fight till the conquest I gain.
  Resolved for thy glory to die.
