Lord, Speak to Me, That I May Speak

Author: Frances R. Havergal Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #394 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Wandering from God Lyrics: 1 Lord, speak to me that I may speak In living echoes of Thy tone; As Thou hast sought, so let me seek Thy erring children lost and lone. 2 O teach me, Lord, that I may teach The precious things Thou dost impart; And wing my words that they may reach The hidden depths of many a heart. 3 O lead me, Lord, that I may lead The wandering and the wavering feet; O feed me, Lord, that I may feed The hungering ones with manna sweet. 4 O strengthen me that while I stand Firm on the Rock, and strong in Thee, I may stretch out a loving hand To wrestlers with the troubled sea. 5 O use me, Lord, use even me, Just as Thou wilt, and when, and where; Until Thy blessed face I see, Thy rest, Thy joy, Thy glory share.

French: 1 Mon Dieu, plus près de toi, plus près de toi! C'est le cri de ma foi: Plus près de toi! Dans le jour où l'épreuve déborde comme un fleuve, garde-moi près de toi, plus près de toi! 2 Plus près de toi, Seigneur, plus près de toi! Tiens-moi dans ma douleur tout près de toi, alors que la souffrance fait son oeuvre en silence, toujours plus près de toi, plus près de toi! 3 Plus près de toi, toujours, plus près de toi! Donne-moit ton secourts, soutiens ma foi! Que Satan se déchaîne, ton amour me ramène toujours plus près de toi, plus près de toi! 4 Mon Dieu, plus près de toi! Dans le désert j'ai vu, plus près de toi, ton ciel ouvert, Pèlerin, bon courage! Ton chant brave l'orage: Mon Dieu, plus près de toi, plus près de toi!

Author: Samuel Stennett Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #446 (1899) Topics: Wandering from God Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my Saviour and my God, Thou hast redeemed me with Thy blood; By ties, both natural and divine, I am and ever will be Thine. 2 But ah! should my inconstant heart, Ere I'm aware, from Thee depart, What dire reproach would fall on me For such ingratitude to Thee! 3 The thought I dread, the crime I hate; The guilt, the shame, I deprecate: And yet so mighty are my foes, I dare not trust my warmest vows. 4 Pity my frailty, dearest Lord! Grace in the needful hour afford. Oh, steel this timorous heart of mine With fortitude and love divine. 5 So shall I triumph o'er my fears, And gather joys from all my tears; So shall I to the world proclaim The honors of the Christian name.
