Lord, Speak to Me That I May Speak

[Verse 1] Lord, speak to me that I may speak In living echoes of Thy tone; As Thou has sought so let me seek Thy erring children, lost and lone. [Verse 2] Oh, lead me, Lord, that I may lead The wandering and the wavering feet; O feed me, Lord, that I may feed Thy hungering ones with manna sweet. [Verse 3] Oh, strengthen me, that while I stand Firm on the Rock and strong in Thee, I may stretch out a loving hand To wrestlers with the troubled sea. [Verse 4] 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. [Verse 5] Oh, give Thine own sweet rest to me, That I may speak with soothing power A word in season, as from Thee To weary ones in needful hour. [Verse 6] O fill me with Thy fulness, Lord, Until my very heart o'er flow; In kindling tho't and glowing word, Thy love to tell, Thy praise to show. [Verse 7] Oh, use me, Lord, use even me, Just as Thou wilt, and how, and where; Until Thy blessed face I see, Thy rest, Thy joy, Thy glory share.
