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
Thy erring
children, lost and lone.
2. Oh, lead me,
Lord, that I may lead
The wand'ring and
the wav'ring feet,
Oh, feed me, Lord,
that I may feed
Thy hung'ring ones
with manna sweet.
3. Oh, 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.
4. Oh, give Thine
own sweet rest to me,
That I may speak
with soothing pow'r
A word in season,
as from Thee,
To weary ones in
needful hour.
5. Oh, 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.
6. Oh, 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.
