Not all the outward Forms
Not all the outward forms on earth
Nor rites that God has giv'n
Nor will of man, nor blood, nor birth
Can raise a soul to heav'n
The sov'reign will of God alone
Prepares the heirs of grace
Born in the image of his Son
A new, peculiar race
The Spirit, like some heav'nly wind
Blows on the sons of flesh
Renews the spirit of the mind
And forms the man afresh
Our quickened souls awake and rise
From the long sleep of death
On heav'nly things we fix our eyes
And praise employs our breath
