This hymn has a unique tune

 

 1  Oh, may my spirit flow,

       Oh, may it flow!

    Now I beseech Thee, Lord,

       Oh, may it flow!

    My past I would forsake,

    The iron walls would break,

    My spirit free would make;

       Oh, may it flow!

 

 2  Oh, may my spirit flow,

       Oh, may it flow!

    Now I implore Thee, Lord,

       Oh, may it flow!

    No more self-satisfied,

    No more in self-bound pride,

    No more my spirit tied;

       Oh, may it flow!

 

 3  Oh, may my spirit flow,

       Oh, may it flow!

    For this I plead with Thee,

       Oh, may it flow!

    High-minded not to be,

    Pride shall not prison me,

    I'd flow unceasingly,

       In spirit flow.

 

 4  Oh, may my spirit flow,

       Oh, may it flow!

    For this I seek Thee, Lord,

       Oh, may it flow!

    No more to isolate,

    Nor self to perfect make,

    My spirit nought abate,

       Deeply to flow.

 

 5  Oh, may my spirit flow,

       Oh, may it flow!

    I ask Thee, gracious Lord,

       Oh, may it flow!

    My trust in self o'erthrow,

    Down from self's throne I'll go,

    That living water flow

       In spirit, Lord.

 

 6  Oh, may my spirit flow,

       Oh, may it flow!

    Answer my prayer, dear Lord,

       Oh, may it flow!

    Not just commune with Thee,

    I long to builded be,

    Mingle with others free

       In spirit, Lord.
