1 May the mind of Christ, my Savior,
live in me from day to day,
by his love and pow'r controlling
all I do and say.
2 May the word of God dwell richly
in my heart from hour to hour,
so that all may see I triumph
only through his pow'r.
3 May the peace of God, my Father,
rule my life in everything,
that I may be calm to comfort
sick and sorrowing.
4 May the love of Jesus fill me
as the waters fill the sea.
Him exalting, self abasing:
this is victory.
5 May his beauty rest upon me
as I seek the lost to win,
and may they forget the channel,
seeing only him. |
