Lord, speak to me, that I may speak
In the living echoes of Thy tone;
As Thou hast sought, so let me seek Thine
Erring children lost and lone.
O teach me, Lord, that I may teach
The precious things Thou dost impart;
And wing my words that they may reach
The hidden depths of many a heart.
O fill me with Thy fullness,
Lord, until my very heart o’er flow
In kindling thought and glowing word,
Thy love to tell, Thy praise to show.
O use me, Lord, use even me,
Just as Thou wilt, and when, and where,
Until Thy blessed face I see
Thy rest, Thy joy, Thy glory share.
