G                  Am   D7 G
Lord, speak to me, that I  may speak

      C         A   D  A   D
   in living echoes of thy tone;

   G                    D7  G
as thou hast sought, so let me seek thine

C          Am   G    D   G
erring children lost and lone.

      G                  Am   D7 G
      Oh, use me, Lord, use even me,

            C         A   D  A   D
      Just as you will, and when, and where

         G                    D7  G
      Until your blessed face I see,

      C          Am   G    D   G
      Your rest, your joy, your glory share
[Verse 2]
G                  Am   D7 G
Oh, lead me, Lord, that I may lead

      C         A   D  A   D
The wand'ring and the wav'ring feet.

   G                    D7  G
Oh, feed me, Lord, that I may feed

C          Am   G    D   G
Your hungry ones with manna sweet.
[Verse 3]
G                  Am   D7 G
Oh, teach me, Lord, that I may teach

      C         A   D  A   D
The precious truths which you impart.

   G                    D7  G
And wing my words that they may reach

C          Am   G    D   G
The hidden depths of many a heart.
[Verse 4]
G                  Am   D7 G
Oh, fill me with your fullness, Lord,

      C         A   D  A   D
  Until my very hearts o'erflows

   G                    D7  G
In kindling thought and glowing word,

C          Am   G    D   G
Your love to tell, your praise to show.
[Verse 5]
G                  Am   D7 G
Oh, strengthen me, that While I stand

      C         A   D  A   D
Firm on the rock and strong in Thee,

   G                    D7  G
I may stretch out a loving hand

C          Am   G    D   G
To wrestlers with the troubled sea.
[Verse 6]
G                  Am   D7 G
Oh bend my will and make it thine

      C         A   D  A   D
My inner man broken and meek

   G                    D7  G
Living my all only for Thee,

C          Am   G    D   G
Until Thy blessed face I see.
