Give me, the faith which can remove

Lyrics

  1. Give me the faith which can remove
    and sink the mountain to a plain;
    give me the childlike praying love,
    which longs to build thy house again;
    thy love, let it my heart o'er-power,
    and all my simple soul devour.
  2. I would the precious time redeem,
    and longer live for this along,
    to spend and to be spent for them
    who have not yet my Savior known;
    fully on these my mission prove,
    and only breathe, to breathe thy love.
  3. My talents, gifts, and graces, Lord,
    into thy blessed hands receive;
    and let me live to preach thy word,
    and let me to thy glory live;
    my every sacred moment spend
    in publishing the sinner's Friend.
  4. Enlarge, inflame, and fill my heart
    with boundless charity divine,
    so shall I all my strength exert,
    and love them with a zeal like thine,
    and lead them to thy open side,
    the sheep for whom the Shepherd died.
