Live out Thy life within me,
O
Jesus King of kings!
Be
Thou Thyself the answer
To
all my questionings;
Live
out Thy life within me,
In
all things have Thy way!
I,
the transparent medium
Thy
glory to display.
2
The
temple has been yielded,
And
purified of sin;
Let
Thy Shekinah glory
Now
shine forth from within,
And
all the earth keep silence,
The
body hence forth be
Thy
silent, gentle servant,
Moved
only as by Thee.
3
Its
members every moment
Held
subject to Thy call,
Ready
to have Thee use them,
Or
not be used at all
Held
without restless longing,
Or
strain, or stress or fret,
Or
chafings at Thy dealings,
O
thoughts of vain regret.
4
But
restful calm, and pliant,
From
bend and bias free,
Awaiting
Thy decision,
When
Thou hast need of me.
Live
out Thy life within me,
O
Jesus, King of kings!
Be
Thou the glorious answer
To
all my questionings.
