Author: Ruth Tracy (1870-1960) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #435 (1986) Lyrics: 1 Lord, I pray that I may know thee,
Risen One, enthroned on high;
Empty hands I’m Stretching to thee,
Show thyself to me, I cry.
Show thyself to me, show thyself to me,
That I may reveal thy beauty;
Show thyself to me.
2 All that once I thought most worthy,
All of which I once did boast,
In thy light seems poor and passing,
‘Tis thyself I covet most.
Give thyself to me, give thyself to me,
That I may show forth thy power;
Give thyself to me.
3 Only as I truly know thee
Can I make thee truly known;
Only bring the power to others
Which in my own life is shown.
Show thy power in me, show thy power in me,
That I may be used for others;
Show thy power in me.
