God the Almighty, Uncreated Life

God the Almighty

Uncreated Life

List to my cry as I lie in the dust

Fathomless glory all about Thee is;

Life Giver

my Creator

know Thee I must.

Oh

by the Cross

the passion of Thy Christ

Oh

by the death of my Lord crucified

From pow’r of darkness translate me today

Into the kingdom of Thy light to abide.

Fill from the center with Thine utmost filling

Fill to circumf’rence

fill right to the brim;

Blaze forth

the light

the glory of Thy being

About and ’round me to the uttermost rim.

Life Uncreated

Thou most holy God

Life-giving Spirit

oh

create in me

Something that speaks of Thee and of Thy glory

Something compelling that will draw to Thee.

Father

I thank Thee that my quest is ended.

I reign in life with Christ upon the throne

How satisfied to triumph now in Him

The Cross the touchstone that makes me His own.
