316   Live Out Thy Life Within Me




[1]
Live out Thy life within me
O Jesus King of kings!
Be Thou Thyself the answer
To all my questionings;
Live out Thy life within me
In all things have Thy way!
I the transparent medium
Thy glory to display.

[2]
The temple has been yielded
And purified of sin;
Let Thy Shekinah glory
Now shine forth from within
And all the earth keep silence
The body henceforth be
Thy silent gentle servant
Moved only as by Thee.

[3]
Its members every moment
Held subject to Thy call
Ready to have Thee use them
Or not be used at all;
Held without restless longing
Or strain or stress or fret
Or chafings at Thy dealings
Or thoughts of vain regret.

[4]
But restful calm and pliant
From bend and bias free
Awaiting Thy decision
When Thou hast need of me.
Live out Thy life within me
O Jesus King of kings!
Be Thou the glorious answer
To all my questionings.
