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-winged zeal On the world’s errands go And labour up the heavenly hill With weary feet and slow. 4. O not for Thee my weak desires, My power, baser part! O not for Thee my fading fires, The ashes of my heart! 5. O choose me in my golden time; In my dear joys have part! For Thee the glory of my prime, The fullness of my heart!
