How I praise Thee, precious Savior,

That Thy love laid hold of me;

Thou hast saved and cleansed and filled me

That I might Thy channel be.

CHORUS

Channels only, blessed Master,

But with all Thy wondrous power,

Flowing through us, Thou canst use us

Every day and every hour.

Emptied that Thou shouldest fill me,

A clean vessel in Thy hand,

With no power but, as Thou givest

Graciously with each command.

                                            CHORUS

Witnessing Thy power to save me,

Setting free from self and sin,

Thou who boughtest to possess me,

In Thy fullness, Lord, come in.

                                            CHORUS

Jesus, fill now with Thy Spirit,

Hearts that full surrender know,

That the streams of living water

From our inner man may flow.

CHORUS
