Unto him that hath Thou givest

Frances Ridley Havergal (1836-1879)
5 Verses Abundant Life
Verse 1
Unto him that hath Thou givest Ever more abundantly; Lord, I live because Thou livest, Therefore give more life to me, Therefore speed me in the race, Therefore let me grow in grace.
Verse 2
Deepen all Thy work, O Master, Strengthen every downward root; Only do Thou ripen faster, More and more Thy pleasant fruit; Purge me, prune me, self abase; Only let me grow in grace.
Verse 3
Let me grow by sun and shower, Every moment water me; Make me really, hour by hour, More and more conformed to Thee, That Thy loving eye may trace Day by day my growth in grace.
Verse 4
From Thy fulness grace outpouring, Show me ever greater things; Raise me higher, sunward soaring, Mounting as on eagle-wings. By the brightness of Thy face, Ever let me grow in grace.
Verse 5
Let me, then, be always growing, Never, never standing still, Listening, learning, better knowing Thee and Thy most blessed will. Till I win the glorious race, Daily let me grow in grace.
