MHB -572 – BEHOLD the servant of the Lord!

Methodist-Hymns-572

1: BEHOLD the servant of the Lord!
I wait Thy guiding eye to feel,
To hear and keep Thy every word,
To prove and do Thy perfect will,
Joyful from my own works to cease,
Glad to fulfil all righteousness.

2: Me,  if Thy grace vouchsafe to use,
Meanest of all thy creatures, me,
The deed, the time, the manner  choose,
Let all my fruit be found of  Thee;
Let all my works in Thee be  wrought,
By thee to full perfection brought.

3: My every weak, though good design,
O’errule, or change, as seems Thee meet;
Jesus, let all my work be Thine!
Thy work, O Lord, is all complete,
And pleasing in Thy Father’s sight;
Thou only hast done all things  right.

4: Here then to Thee Thy own I leave;
Mould as thou wilt thy passive clay;
But let me all thy stamp receive,
But let me all thy words obey,
Serve with a single heart and eye,
And to thy glory live and die.
