COME EMPTY ME OF SELF

 

1. Come empty me of self, O Lord,

My cunning heart renew.

So wondrous holy is this work,

No one but Thou can do.

 

Refrain

Come empty me of self, O Lord,

No good there is inside.

Deceived by pride, thro'-out my life,

In darkness do I hide.

Come empty me of self, so I

Can at last be revived.

 

2. Hear Thou my cry to Thee, O Lord,

Cleanse Thou these sins of mine!

I cannot bear to see myself,

More so those eyes of Thine.

 

3. Why do I live in restlessness?

Show me what to discard!

My conscience keeps accusing me -

What sin do I regard?

 

4. In fellowship with Thee, Thy face

Is oft' hidden and veiled;

Why is my faith so insecure?

Show me where I have failed!
