Kindle in me the Pentecost fires;
Emptied of self and sin may I be,
Filled with Thy love and hidden in Thee.
Refrain:
Emptied of self, with holy love filled,
Let ev’ry voice within me be stilled,
Until I hear Thy whispers to me,
Dead to the world but living for Thee.
2 Lord, let me know no pleasure but Thine,
Lost in Thy will, Thy plans shall be mine;
Yielded to Thee in service so blest,
Struggling no more, in Thee I find rest. [Refrain]
3 Human I am and ever will be,
Clothe me with gracious humility;
Purge me from sin and make my heart clean,
Until Thy image in me is seen. [Refrain]
4 All that I have is laid at Thy feet,
My consecration now is complete;
I would be guided by Thee alone,
Take Thou my heart and make it Thy throne. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Lord, let me die to selfish desires]
