Chords

Words: Charles Wesley (1749) Music: Louis Spohr (1834) [Verse 1]
  D             G
[tab]   D
Of watchful, Godly fear,

            G
A sensibili-ty of sin,

  D            A7 D
A pain to feel it near.

       A             G      D
I want the first app-proach to feel

   A     E  A     E7   A
Of pride of wrong de - sire,

                       D
To catch the wandering of my will,

                   A     D
And quench the kin-dling fire.
[Verse 2]
     D              G
From Thee that I no more may stray,

   D
No more Thy goodness grieve,

                    G
Grant me the finial awe, I pray,

    D          A7      D
The tender con-science give.

         A         G  D
Quick as the apple of an eye,

  A    E  A   E7      A
O God, my con-science make;

                   G
Awake my soul when sin is nigh,

    D             A7  D
And keep it still a - wake.
[Verse 3]
   D             G
Al-mighty God of truth and love,

   D
To me Thy power im-part;

                     G
The mountain from my soul remove,

    D             A7 D
The hardness from my heart.

  D   A           G   D
O may the least o-mis-sion pain

   A  E A   E7  A
My re-a-wak-end soul,

                     G
And drive me to that blood again,

      D               A7 D
Which makes the wound-ed whole.
