The Celebration Hymnal

667

Lord, Speak to Me

1 Lord, speak to me that I may speak  
In living echoes of Thy tone;  
As Thou hast sought, so let me seek  
Thine erring children lost and lone.  

2 O teach me, Lord, that I may teach  
The precious truths Thou dost impart;  
And wing my words that they may reach  
The hidden depths of many a heart.  

3 O fill me with Thy fullness, Lord,  
Until my very heart o'erflow  
In kindling thought and glowing word,  
Thy love to tell, Thy praise to show.  

4 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.
