Jesus my Lord that I should be,
Walking in all Your laws each day;
Utterly pure in love to Thee,
Under Your Spirit’s sovereign sway.

Jesus my Lord that I should be,
Godly and good in my whole life;
Open my eyes that I may see,
All that would quench and cause You grief.

Jesus my Lord that I should be,
Yielded to You in deed and heart;
Conformed in death Lord unto Thee,
Alive to God in every part.

Jesus my Lord that I should be,
Like You my Saviour and my God;
To live and breathe in purity,
To love and live Your living word.

(Tune: Rimington; Duke St; LM)
