Grow in me

Lord

when I’m bad I get so sad;

It seems the Lamb I never knew

But blood was shed

depression fled

So now I hide in You.

It’s in the Son I have begun

It’s in the Son I’ll onward go

In Him I’ll walk

in Him I’ll talk

In Him I’ll surely grow.

Oh Jesus now grow in me;

I want for You to be

Pleased to be in me what You want to be

And when it gets too hard feel free

To grow some more in me.

Lord

I’m not strange

I just can’t change

It’s not from lack of effort though

The more I try

the more I find

I need for You to grow.

Where I have failed

Lord You’ve prevailed

The secret of success I know:

That all I need is life indeed

I pray for You to grow.

With flags unfurled here comes the world

It’s beauty does my heart embrace

But it grows pale whene’er that veil

Removed displays Your face.

As my heart turns

with love it burns

Your face is all I want to see

Your image Lord which I adore

My image soon will be.
