Had I a heart...

Had I a heart as large as earth,
And that a frozen ball,
The Sun of Righteousness breaks forth,
And soon dissolves it all!

Had I a heart as dark as night,
Without one cheering ray,
My Lord, by His transcendent light;
Can turn my night to day!

Had I a heart as hard as stone,
A heart which none can move,
When Jesus makes His presence known,
It melts the stone to love!

Had I a heart as full of fears,
As drops that swell the sea,
When Jesus' pardoning love appears,
He makes them quickly flee!

However perplexed my case may seem,
'Tis easy to my Lord;
All things are possible to Him,
For powerful is His Word!

Then let me rest upon His power,
And run my heavenly race;
He will, in the most trying hour,
Impart preserving grace!



James Smith, 1842
