I remember in a sermon brother Ravenhill quoting this hymn from memory, I thought it would be neat to share, I might try and memorize this one. ;-) EDIT: It's not his favorite hymn as far as I know but he is definetly fond of it, just thought I would clarify.---GIVE me the faith which can remove1 GIVE me the faith which can removeAnd sink the mountain to a plain;Give me the child-like praying love,Which longs to build thy house again;Thy love let it my heart o'erpower,And all my simple soul devour. 2 I want an even strong desire,I want a calmly-fervent zeal,To save poor souls out of the fire,To snatch them from the verge of hell,And turn them to a pardoning God,And quench the brands in Jesu's blood. 3 I would the precious time redeem,And longer live for this alone,To spend, and to be spent, for themWho have not yet my Saviour known;Fully on these my mission prove,And only breathe, to breathe thy love. 4 My talents, gifts, and graces, Lord,Into thy blessed hands receive;And let me live to preach thy word,And let me to thy glory live;My every sacred moment spendIn publishing the sinner's friend. 5 Enlarge, inflame, and fill my heartWith boundless charity divine!So shall I all my strength exert,And love them with a zeal like thine;And lead them to thy open side,The sheep for whom their Shepherd died.
