Live Thyself
Lord Jesus
through me
For my very life art Thou;
Thee I take to all my problems
As the full solution now.
In all things Thy will be done;
I but a transparent vessel
To make visible the Son.
Consecrated is Thy temple
Purged from every stain and sin;
May Thy flame of glory now be
Manifested from within.
Let the earth in solemn wonder
See my body willingly
Offered as Thy slave obedient
Energized alone by Thee.
Every moment
every member
Girded
waiting Thy command;
Underneath the yoke to labor
Or be laid aside as planned.
When restricted in pursuing
No disquiet will beset;
Underneath Thy faithful dealing
Not a murmur or regret.
Ever tender
quiet
restful
Inclinations put away
That Thou may for me choose freely
As Thy finger points the way.
