Tune: Morning Hymn
(\'New every morning is the love\')
Based on a prayer by St Ambrose (337-397AD)
********
O Lord, who has mercy on all
Forgive me my sins, I not fall
Mercifully kindle in me
The fire of your Spirit brightly
Take away from me heart of stone
Give me a heart of flesh alone
To love and adore you, a heart
To delight in you every part
And too follow you constantly
And too enjoy you thankfully
Holy Spirit, who in hearts live
Of believers, you us grace give
