Online! | Re: | | Lord, speak to me, that I may speak in living echoes of Thy tone; As Thou hast sought, so let me seek Th ine erring children lost and lone. O lead me, Lord, that I may lead the wandering and the wavering feet: O feed me, Lord, that I may feed Thy hungering ones with manna sweet. O teach me, Lord, that I may teach the precious things Thou dost impart; And wing my words, that they may reach the hidden depths of many a heart. O fill me with Thy fullness, Lord, until my very heart oerfl ow In kindling thought and glowing word, Thy love to tell, Thy praise to show. O use me, Lord, use even me, just as Thou wilt, and when and where, Until Thy blessed face I see, Thy rest, Thy joy, Thy glory share. Amen.
- Frances Ridley Havergal (1836-1879)

| Re: Things Needful | | Thou Eternal Source...
Blow away the ashes of unbelief by thy Spirits breath and give me light, fire, and warmth of love. I need spiritual comforts that are gentle, peaceful, mild, refreshing, that will melt me into conscious lowliness before thee, that will make me feel and rest in thee as my All.
Fill the garden of my soul with the wind of love, that the scents of the Christian life may be wafted to others; then come and gather fruits to thy glory. So shall I fulfill the great end of my being-- to glorify thee and be a blessing to men.
