Author: Thomas H. Gill Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3687 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Lord, in the fullness of my might,
I would for Thee be strong:
While runneth o’er each dear delight,
To Thee should soar my song.
2. I would not give the world my heart,
And then profess Thy love;
I would not feel my strength depart,
And then Thy service prove.
3. I would not with swift wingèd zeal
On the world’s errands go,
And labor up the heavenly hill
With weary feet and slow.
4. O not for Thee my weak desires,
My poorer, baser part!
O not for Thee my fading fires,
The ashes of my heart!
5. O choose me in my golden time:
In my clear joys have part!
For Thee the glory of my prime,
The fullness of my heart! Languages: English Tune Title: UNIVERSITY
Lord, in the Fullness of My Might
