SPIRITUAL HYMNS.

The Lord is long-suffering.

1

LORD, and am I yet alive?

Not in torments, not in hell!
Still doth thy good Spirit strive!
With the chief of sinners dwell!
Tell it, unto sinners tell,
I am, I am out of hell!
2 Yes, I still lift up mine eyes,
Will not of thy love despair;
Still in spite of sin I rise,
Still I bow to thee in pray'r.
Tell it, &c.
3 O the length and breadth of love!
Jesus, Saviour, can it be?
All thy mercies' height I praise,
All the depth is seen in me.
Tell it, &c.
4 See a bush that burns with fire,
Unconsum'd amid the flame;
Turn aside the sight t'admire,
I the living wonder am.
Tell it, &c.
