I sink in life's alarms when by myself I stand; imprison me within your arms, and strong shall be my hand. 2 My pow'r is faint and low till I have learned to serve; it lacks the needed fire to glow, it lacks the breeze to nerve; it cannot drive the world until itself be driv'n; its flag can only be unfurled when you shall breathe from heav'n. 3 My heart is weak and poor until it master find; it has no spring of action sure, it varies with the wind. It cannot freely move till you have wrought its chain; enslave it with your matchless love, and deathless it shall reign. Scripture: Matthew 16:24-26 Used With Tune: LEOMINSTER
