Speak, O Lord, Thy Servant Heareth
VERSE 1
Speak, O
Lord, Thy servant heareth,
To Thy
Word I now give heed;
Life and
spirit Thy Word beareth,
All Thy
Word is true indeed.
Death’s
dread pow’r in me is rife;
Jesus,
may Thy Word of Life
Fill my
soul with love’s strong fervor
That I
cling to Thee forever.
VERSE 2
Oh, what
blessing to be near Thee
And to
hearken to Thy voice;
May I
ever love and fear Thee
That Thy
Word may be my choice!
Oft were
hardened sinners, Lord,
Struck
with terror by Thy Word;
But to
him who for sin grieveth
Comfort
sweet and hope it giveth.
VERSE 3
Lord,
Thy words are waters living
Where I
quench my thirsty need;
Lord,
Thy words are bread life-giving,
On Thy
words my soul doth feed.
Lord,
Thy words shall be my light
Through
death’s vale and dreary night;
Yea,
they are my sword prevailing
And my
cup of joy unfailing.
VERSE 4
Precious
Jesus, I beseech Thee,
May Thy
words take root in me;
May this
gift from Heav’n enrich me
So that
I bear fruit for Thee!
Take
them never from my heart
Till I
see Thee as Thou art,
When in
heav’nly bliss and glory
I shall
greet Thee and adore Thee.
