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.

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 overflow

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.
