536. May the mind of Christ my Saviour

1 May the mind of Christ my Saviour
live in me from day to day,
by his love and power controlling
all I do or say.

2 May the word of God dwell richly
in my heart from hour to hour,
so that all may see I triumph
only through his power.

3 May the peace of God, my Father,
in my life for ever reign;
that I may be calm to comfort
those in grief, or pain.

4 May the love of Jesus fill me,
as the waters fill the sea;
him exalting, self denying,
this is victory.

5 May I run the race before me,
strong and brave to face the foe,
drawing all my strength from Jesus
as I onward go.
