Representative Text

1
May the mind of Christ, my Savior,
live in me from day to day,
by His love and pow'r 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 pow'r.

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.
