Spirit of power,
anoint me for service,
Spirit of holiness,
cleanse Thou my heart;
Give to my soul
of Thyself a new vision,
And a new measure
of power impart.
Fill me with power
for service and use me;
Is there not some work
my weak hands can do?
Make me a channel
of life and of blessing,
And with the Spirit
anoint me anew.
Not one lost soul have
I won for Thy kingdom,
All of my life has been
fruitless and waste;
Others have joy
for the jewels ingathered;
May not my soul
of this joy have a taste?
Fill me with power
for service and use me;
Is there not some work
my weak hands can do?
Make me a channel
of life and of blessing,
And with the Spirit
anoint me anew.
Never before has
my soul so an hungered
For Thy infilling,
O Spirit of love!
Come to the throne,
be my Master and Ruler,
Reign Thou and draw
my affections above.
Fill me with power
for service and use me;
Is there not some work
my weak hands can do?
Make me a channel
of life and of blessing,
And with the Spirit
anoint me anew.
Myself I yield
in complete consecration,
Body and spirit and soul
to be Thine;
Spirit of power,
regard Thou my yearnings,
And fill Thou me
with Thy fullness divine.
Fill me with power
for service and use me;
Is there not some work
my weak hands can do?
Make me a channel
of life and of blessing,
And with the Spirit
anoint me anew.
