SEARCH ME! O LORD!

Search me, O Lord!
And try this heart of mine;
Search me, and prove
if I indeed am Thine:
Test by Thy Word
that never changed can be,
My strength of hope
and living faith in Thee.

Search me, O Lord!
Subdue each vain desire,
And in my soul
a deeper love inspire;
Hide Thou my life,
that I, supremely blest,
Beneath Thy wings
in perfect peace may rest.

Search me, O Lord!
And from the dross of sin
Refine as gold,
and keep me pure within;
Search Thou my thoughts,
whose springs Thine eyes can see:
From secret faults,
O Saviour, cleanse Thou me!
