Author: | Frances R. Havergal, 1836-1879 |
Tune: | CANONBURY |
Composer: | Robert A. Schumann, 1810-1856 |
1 Lord, speak to me that I may speak
in living echoes of your tone;
as you have sought, so let me seek
your wand'ring children lost, alone.
2 O teach me, Lord, that I may teach
the precious things that you impart,
and wing my words that thy may reach
the hidden depths of many a heart.
3 O fill me with your fullness, Lord,
until my heart shall overflow
in kindling thought and glowing word,
your love to tell, your praise to show.
4 O use me, Lord, use even me,
just as you will and when and where,
until your blessed face I see,
your rest, your joy, your glory share.
Amen.
