O Jesus Christ, grow Thou in me (Hymn 395)

Verse 1: O Jesus Christ, grow Thou in me, And all things else recede; My heart be daily nearer Thee, From sin be daily freed. Verse 2: In Thy bright beams which on me fall, Fade every evil thought; That I am nothing, Thou art all, I would be daily taught. Verse 3: More of Thy glory let me see, Thou Holy, Wise, and True; I would Thy living image be, In joy and sorrow too. Verse 4: Fill me with gladness from above, Hold me by strength divine; Lord, let the glow of Thy great love Through all my being shine. Verse 5: Make this poor self grow less and less, Be Thou my life and aim; Oh, make me daily through Thy grace More meet to bear Thy name.
