Praise For Faith Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFG HIJI KLMN

Of all the gifts Thine hand bestowsA
Thou Giver of all goodB
Not heaven itself a richer knowsA
Than my Redeemer's bloodC
-
Faith too the blood receiving graceD
From the same hand we gainE
Else sweetly as it suits our caseD
That gift had been in vainE
-
Till Thou Thy teaching power applyF
Our hearts refuse to seeG
And weak as a distemper'd eyeF
Shut out the view of TheeG
-
Blind to the merits of Thy SonH
What misery we endureI
Yet fly that Hand from which aloneJ
We could expect a cureI
-
We praise Thee and would praise Thee moreK
To Thee our all we oweL
The precious Saviour and the powerM
That makes Him precious tooN

William Cowper
