I want the gift of power within: Of love and of a healthful mind, Of power to conquer inbred sin, Of love to Thee and all mankind, Of health that pain and death defies, Most vigorous when the body dies. When shall I hear the inward voice Which only faithful souls can hear? Pardon and

When from sin’s dark hold Thy love had won me, And its wounds Thy tender hands had healed, As Thy blest commands were laid upon me, Growing light my growing need revealed. Thus I sought the path of consecration When to Thee, dear Lord, my vows were given, And the joy which came with full
