402
I want that adorning divine,

1.I want that adorning divine,
Thou only, my Lord, canst bestow;
I want in those beautiful garments to shine,
Which mark out Thy beauty below.
2.I want every moment to feel
Thy Spirit indwelling my heart,
His pow'r ever present to cleanse and to
heal,
And newness of life to impart.
3.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.
4.I want to be marked for Thine own,
Thy seal on my forehead to wear;
And have that new name on the mystic
white stone,
Which none but Thyself can declare.
5.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!
