Author: Mary E. Maxwell, 20th century Hymnal: Revival Hymns and Choruses #245 (1970) First Line: How I praise Thee, precious Savior Refrain First Line: Channels only, blessed Master Lyrics: 1 How I praise Thee, precious Savior,
That Thy love laid hold of me;
Thou hast saved and cleansed and filled me
That I might Thy channel be.
Chorus:
Channels only, blessed Master -
But with all Thy wondrous pow'r
Flowing thru us, Thou canst use us
Ev'ry day and ev'ry hour.
2 Emptied that Thou shouldest fill me,
A clean vessel in Thy hand,
With no pow'r but as Thou givest
Graciously with each command. [Chorus]
3 Witnessing Thy pow'r to save me,
Setting free from self and sin,
Thou who boughtest to possess me,
In Thy fullness, Lord, come in. [Chorus]
4 Jesus, fill now with Thy Spirit
Hearts that full surrender know,
That the streams of living water
From our inner man may flow. [Chorus] Topics: Holy Spirit and Revival; Service Languages: English Tune Title: [How I praise Thee, precious Savior]
