May the Mind of Christ, My Savior

Sean printed up this hymn the other day and had me read it while he was driving home from church. I really like it.

May the mind of Christ my Savior live in me from day to day,
By His love and power controlling all I do and say.
May the Word of God dwell richly in my heart from hour to hour,
So that all may see I triumph only through His power.
May the peace of God my Father rule my life in everything,
That I may be calm to comfort sick and sorrowing.
May the love of Jesus fill me as the waters fill the sea;
Him exalting, self abasing this is victory.
May I run the race before me, strong and brave to face the foe,
Looking only unto Jesus as I onward go.
May His beauty rest upon me as I seek the lost to win,
And may they forget the channel, seeing only Him.

by: Kate B. wilkinson and A. Cyril Barham-Gould.

What a beautiful prayer.
