HELP ME TO HEAR

Help me to hear, as Jesus heard,

cries of the lost and lonely;

help me to live, as Jesus lived,

having one purpose only;

help me to see, as Jesus saw,

multitudes faint and dying;

help me to pray, to give, to go,

but always on Him relying!




Help me to love, as Jesus loved,

all of my heart outpouring;

help me to feel, as Jesus felt,

always the cost ignoring.

Help me to do, as Jesus did,

spend myself without measure,

finding in Him a full reward,

since He is my only treasure.




Help me to seek, as Jesus sought,

hearts that are cold and dreary;

help me to bring, as Jesus brought,

comfort to all the weary;

living to manifest His grace,

telling the old, old story,

kept in His fellowship divine,

yes, all the way home to glory!
