Hymnal: Hymns of Consecration and Faith #25 (1902) First Line: Oh that my life may henceforth be Lyrics: 1 Oh that my life may henceforth be
One anthem, Lord, of praise to Thee!
Thou hast done wondrous things for me!
2 My heart is fill’d to overflow;
And yet, dear Lord, I long to know
Still more and more as on I go.
3 Just like a gleam of light it came,
Setting my longing heart on flame;
The glory be to Thy dear Name!
4 A light that naught on earth can mar;
A light that shineth from afar—
A beautiful attracting star!
5 Drawing my heart from all to Thee,
From self and sin’s dark tyranny,
To fuller joy and liberty.
6 It is enough, I ask no more;
I rest on Thine Almighty power!
And Thou wilt keep me from this hour.
7 I have committed all to Thee!
Thou shalt be glorified in me,
And Thine shall be the victory!
