１、There is within my heart
a deep desire.
To follow Thee whatever
be the cost;
To follow Thee across
the wide,wide ocean,
To seek the souls
in darkness deeply lost.
Dear Lord, I give myself
and all I hope to be,
I ask no other than
Thy perfrct will for me;
I do not ask to know
the future. But Lord,
I pray that Thou wilｔ use me.
２、Dear Lord, the fields are
white unto the harvest
And oh the need
for lab'rers is so great;
I want to do for Thee
my very utmost,
for fear of time
that it may be too late.
Dear Lord, I give myself
and all I hope to be,
I ask no other than
Thy perfrct will for me;
I do not ask to know
the future. But Lord,
I pray that Thou wilｔ use me.
３、"My presence shall go with thee,"
says the Master
Can you not take Him
at His ev'ry word?
He knows the way,
so do not linger after;
Keep close to Him,
directions can be heard.
Dear Lord, I give myself
and all I hope to be,
I ask no other than
Thy perfrct will for me;
I do not ask to know
the future. But Lord,
I pray that Thou wilｔ use me.
４、So if Thy Spirit bids me
cross the ocean,
Or if Thou'lt have me
render service here,
I'll go or stay, and trust Thee
to the fullest.
With Thee to guide me,
I need have no fear
Dear Lord, I give myself
and all I hope to be,
I ask no other than
Thy perfrct will for me;
I do not ask to know
the future. But Lord,
I pray that Thou wilt use me.
