D            G    D      A   D   G    D    A  D
Live out Thy life within me, O Jesus, King of kings!

   Bm      D        A G    D  A      D   G   A
Be Thou Thyself the answer to all my questionings;

     D       G           D      Bm                  Em
Live out Thy life within me, in all things have Thy way!

   D        G D       A    D      G  D  A  D
I, the transparent medium, Thy glory to display.
[Verse 2]
D          G   D        A    D      G D   A  D
The temple has been yielded, and purified of sin,

    Bm     D     A  G  D   A           D    G   A
Let Thy Shekinah glory now shine forth from within,

    D       G             D         Bm              Em
And all the earth keep silence, the body henceforth be

    D       G  D      A     D       G  D  A  D
Thy silent, gentle servant, moved only as by Thee.
[Verse 3]
D           G  D    A    D       G    D  A   D
Its members every moment held subject to Thy call,

   Bm    D         A   G     D  A      D    G  A
Ready to have Thee use them, or not be used at all,

     D       G            D       Bm                    Em
Held without restless longing, or strain, or stress, or fret,

   D        G  D       A     D           G  D    A D
Or chafings at Thy dealings, or thoughts of vain regret.
[Verse 4]
D            G    D      A    G         D   A    D
But restful, calm and pliant, from bend and bias free,

 Bm      D     A G     D    A         D    G  D
Awaiting Thy decision, when Thou hast need of me.

     D       G           D     Bm             Em
Live out Thy life within me, O Jesus, King of kings!

   D        G   D       A   D      G  D   A   D
Be Thou the glorious answer to all my questionings.
