Hymn 588

I need not lack for inward love

Meter: L.M.

Scripture: II Corinthians 5:15

1

I need not lack for inward love

Unto my Saviour who loves me

Thou hast laid down Thy life for me

That a sinner like me may live.

2

If I refuse, to love my Lord

Then I shall now ungrateful be

Will His death be in vain on me

Upon all my weaknesses, Lord.

3

Lord give Thy Inward love to me

That I may for ever love Thee

And when my days new end on earth

And enter into Thy glory.

4

Jesus Thou art a truly Friend

Thy mercies endure for ever

Unto those that perform Thy will

And in Thy perfect holiness.

5

Thou who destroyed the sting of death

And the work of Satan destroy'd

Let sin no more reign over me

For ever let me do Thy will.
