[O might I faithfully improve]

O might I faithfully improve,
The little life behind,
Resolved to ask my Saviour's love,
Till I the blessing find:
To wrestle on in mighty prayer,
Nor ever let Thee go,

75

Till God His secret name declare,
And all His glory show.
I would the precious time redeem,
By counting all things loss,
By offering up my life for Him
Whose blood distain'd the cross.
Thus would I live entirely Thine,
Who gav'st Thyself for me;
And then my spotless soul resign
A sacrifice to Thee.
