Lord, Grant Me a Willing Heart

Lord

grant me a willing heart

To love You without reserve;

Always open to You within

That all of Your riches I may gain.

Rekindle my love for You;

Fan it with burning flame.

Lord

it’s just by Your mercy

I have not been consumed.

Make my love for You burn brightly anew

Each moment Your name I call;

In the dawn of the morning

How I long to be in

Your presence

dear Lord.

Sanctify me

O Lord

From the tides of the world;

Make me an open vessel

Useful to the Master.

Hide not Thy face from me

For I shall surely seek Thee;

From this day until eternity

Your countenance I’ll behold.

Make my love for You burn brightly anew

Each moment Your name I call;

In the dawn of the morning

How I long to be in

Your presence

dear Lord.

Bridge:

Though my heart constantly fails

Yet Lord

Your grace still sustains;

Your love constraining forever will prevail.

Make my love for You burn brightly anew

Each moment Your name I call;

In the dawn of the morning

How I long to be in

Your presence

dear Lord.

Your presence

dear Lord.

Your presence

dear Lord.

Your presence

dear Lord.

Your presence

dear Lord.
