View Me, Lord, A Work Of Thine Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CBCB DEDE FGFG

View me Lord a work of thineA
Shall I then lie downed in nightB
Might thy grace in me but shineA
I should seem made all of lightB
-
Cleanse me Lord that I may kneelC
At thine altar pure and whiteB
They at once thy mercies feelC
Gaze no more on earth's delightB
-
Worldly joys like shadows fadeD
When the heavenly light appearsE
But the covenants Thou hast madeD
Endless know not days nor yearsE
-
In thy word Lord is my trustF
To thy mercies fast I flyG
Though I am but clay and dustF
Yet thy grace can lift me highG
