2 We, Lord, have no sufficiency, Nor power of our own, To think so much as one good thought, As of our selves alone;
3 But all our whole sufficiency Doth from the Lord proceed, Who works in us most graciously Both the will and the deed.
4 O draw us then our Saviour dear With thy strong Cords of Love, And then will we run after thee As fast as we can move.
5 Shall we by thy own sovereign Grace These special drawings find; Then shall we run our heavenly Race With a sweet raised Mind.
