Hymn using same tune:

#596

 

 1  Jesus, Redeemer and my one Inspirer,

       Heat in my coldness, set my life aglow.

    Break down my barriers; draw, yea, draw me nigher.

       Thee would I know, whom it is life to know.

 

 2  Deepen me, rid me of the superficial;

       From pale delusion set my spirit free;

    All the entangled in me quick unravel;

       Pluck forth each thread of insincerity.

 

 3  The vows are on me, oh to serve Thee truly —

       Love perfectly, in purity obey —

    Burn, burn, O Fire, O Wind, now winnow throughly;

       O Sword, awake against the flesh and slay.
