JESUS, Thy life is mine! Dwell evermore in me; And let me see That nothing can untwine My life from Thine. Thy life in me be shown! Lord, I would henceforth seek To think and speak Thy thoughts, Thy words alone; No more my own. Thy love, Thy joy, Thy peace, Continuously impart Unto my heart; Fresh springs, that never cease But still increase. The blest reality Of resurrection power, Thy Church's dower, Life more abundantly, Lord, give to me! Thy fullest gift, O Lord, Now at Thy feet I claim, Through Thy dear name! And touch the rapturous chord Of praise forth poured. Jesus, my life is Thine, And evermore shall be Hidden in Thee! For nothing can untwine Thy life from mine. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...RUGBY CHAPEL by MATTHEW ARNOLD THE RESURRECTION by JONATHAN HENDERSON BROOKS ODE ON THE PLEASURE ARISING FROM VICISSITUDE by THOMAS GRAY THE RUSH OF THE OREGON by ARTHUR GUITERMAN GRENADIER by ALFRED EDWARD HOUSMAN HUGH SELWYN MAUBERLEY: 9.
