Let me die to self and live for Thee: Die to getting even when I'm wronged; Die to pride and vain display of "I"; Die to the place for which I've greatly longed. Let me die to self and live to Thee: Let all the carnal's man's hurt be gone; May rest, peace, and joy in doing all Thy will Replace the turmoil as each vict'ry dawns. Let me die to self and live to Thee: Give all--the prime, the best I have in youth-- Yield every part a vessel in Thy hand, Denying self and standing firm for truth. Let me die to self and live to Thee: Live with my faith in Christ, the Son of God; Live in Thy power, who gives the victory, Live cheerfully beneath the chastening rod. Through God's great keeping power I die; I walk and trust though hard and strong the test. Sufficient is His grace for all my need; And since I'm His, He sends what's for my best -- B. M. Dozier |
