Dire Desire

"Lord, Thou hast heard the desire of the humble: Thou wilt prepare their heart, Thou wilt cause Thine ear to hear" (Psalm 10:17). "He giveth grace to the lowly" (Proverbs 3:34). "What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ?" (Matthew 27:22).

What then shall I do with Christ
Who gave Himself for me,
Who for my sins was sacrificed,
And died on Calvary?

O Lord, You know my heart's desire,
Which You Yourself prepared!
My path was dark, my need was dire,
And none but You, Lord, cared!

There is one answer I would give
To Christ, who loved my soul:
Lord Jesus, take this life I live,
And take complete control!
