74: MAY the mind of Christ my Saviour

74: MAY the mind of Christ my Saviour

by Kate Barclay Wilkinson (1859-1928)

1 MAY the mind of Christ my Saviour
Live in me from day to day,
By His love and power controlling
All I do and say.

2 May the Word of God dwell richly
In my heart from hour to hour,
So that all may see I triumph
Only through His power.

3 May the peace of God my Father
Rule my life in everything,
That I may be calm to comfort
Sick and sorrowing.

4 May the love of Jesus fill me,
As the waters fill the sea;
Him exalting, self abasing,
This is victory.

5 May I run the race before me,
Strong and brave to face the foe,
Looking only unto Jesus
As I onward go.

6 May His beauty rest upon me
As I seek the lost to win,
And may they forget the channel,
Seeing only Him.
