For the Honor of My GodDon Fortner

(Tune: #446—Satisfied—87.87.D)

1.      Father, Giver of salvation, Give me grace Your grace to show:

Make me kind, full of compassion, And to anger make me slow.

 

2.      How can sinners granted mercy, Living on Your boundless grace,

Turn away from any needy Soul a heart of tenderness?

 

3.      Keep me from such pride and hardness In the things I do and say.

Fill me, Savior, with forbearance, Such as You have shown to me.

 

4.      Holy Spirit, fill (control) me, That I may do others good.

Blessed Savior, reign within me For the honor of my God!
