Hymn 841  

SUBJECT: THE CHURCH—HER BUILDING
METER: 6.5.6.5.D.
AUTHOR: Witness Lee
COMPOSER: Frances R. Havergal

1 Thou art all my life, Lord,
   In me Thou dost live;
  With Thee all God’s fulness
   Thou to me dost give.
  By Thy holy nature
   I am sanctified,
  By Thy resurrection,
   Vict’ry is supplied.
2 Now Thy flowing life, Lord,
   Doth enlighten me,
  Bringing in the spirit
   Fellowship with Thee;
  All my need supplying,
   Making Thy demand,
  Leading me to cleansing
   And in Thee to stand.
3 Thy anointing Spirit
   Me shall permeate,
  All my soul and spirit
   Thou wouldst saturate;
  Every part transforming
   Till conformed to Thee,
  Till Thy life shall bring me
   To maturity.
4 Lord, Thy life abundant,
   Flowing, rich and free,
  Constantly refreshes
   And empowers me.
  Death by life is swallowed,
   Weakness is made strong,
  All my bonds are broken,
   Gloom is turned to song.
5 I would give myself, Lord,
   Fully unto Thee,
  That Thy heart’s desire
   Be fulfilled in me.
  I no more would struggle
   To myself reform,
  Thus in me to hinder
   What Thou wouldst perform.
6 I would cease completely
   From my efforts vain,
  Let Thy life transform me,
   Full release to gain;
  Build me up with others
   Till in us Thou see
  Thy complete expression
   Glorifying Thee.
