1 Oh, may my spirit flow,
   Oh, may it flow!
  Now I beseech Thee, Lord
   Oh, may it flow!
  My past I would forsake,
  The iron walls would break,
  My spirit free would make;
   Oh, may it flow!
2 Oh, may my spirit flow,
   Oh, may it flow!
  Now I implore Thee, Lord,
   Oh, may it flow!
  No more self-satisfied,
  No more in self-bound pride,
  No more my spirit tied;
   Oh, may it flow!
3 Oh, may my spirit flow,
   Oh, may it flow!
  For this I plead with Thee,
   Oh, may it flow!
  High-minded not to be,
  Pride shall not prison me,
  I’d flow unceasingly,
   In spirit flow.
4 Oh, may my spirit flow,
   Oh, may it flow!
  For this I seek Thee, Lord,
   Oh, may it flow!
  No more to isolate,
  Nor self to perfect make,
  My spirit nought abate,
   Deeply to flow.
 
5 Oh, may my spirit flow,
   Oh, may it flow!
  I ask Thee, gracious Lord,
   Oh, may it flow!
  My trust in self o’erthrow,
  Down from self’s throne I’ll go,
  That living water flow
   In spirit, Lord.
6 Oh, may my spirit flow,
   Oh, may it flow!
  Answer my prayer, dear Lord,
   Oh, may it flow!
  Not just commune with Thee,
  I long to builded be,
  Mingle with others free
   In spirit, Lord.
