Art thou hung’ring for the fulness

lyricist: F. H. Allen
Composer: Jean J. Rousseau

Art thou hung’ring for the fulness

Of the blessing Christ doth give?

Longing now to learn the secret

Of the life He bids thee live?

In His word thine answer standeth

“Christ who is our Life” it saith;

Open now thy heart

and trust Him

There to dwell

henceforth

by faith.

Christ

the Lord’s Anointed

reigning

O’er the life He died to win

Daily shall reveal more fully

His great power

without

within.

What thou never could’st accomplish

Shall His Spirit work through thee

While thy soul this witness beareth

’Tis not I

but Christ in me.

In Him dwelleth all God’s fulness

In Him thou art made complete;

Rise

and claim thy heavenly birthright

Kneeling at thy Father’s feet.

He will never disappoint thee

Praise Him that the gift is thine;

Then go forth to live each moment

On sufficiency divine.

Lord

I come

and simply resting

On Thy faithful

changeless word

I believe the blood doth cleanse me

And that Christ is crowned Lord.

Grant henceforth a ceaseless outflow

Of Thy life and love through me;

Reaching those who sit in darkness

Winning priceless souls to Thee.
