| 1. | God the Almighty, Uncreated Life, |
| | List to my cry as I lie in the dust, |
| | Fathomless glory all about Thee is; |
| | Life Giver, my Creator, know Thee I must. |
| 2. | Oh, by the Cross, the passion of Thy Christ, |
| | Oh, by the death of my Lord crucified, |
| | >From pow'r of darkness translate me today |
| | Into the kingdom of Thy light to abide. |
| 3. | Fill from the center with Thine utmost filling, |
| | Fill to circumf'rence, fill right to the brim; |
| | Blaze forth, the light, the glory of Thy being |
| | About and 'round me to the uttermost rim. |
| 4. | Life Uncreated, Thou most holy God, |
| | Life-giving Spirit, oh, create in me |
| | Something that speaks of Thee and of Thy |
| | glory, |
| | Something compelling that will draw to Thee. |
| 5. | Father, I thank Thee that my quest is ended. |
| | I reign in life with Christ upon the throne, |
| | How satisfied to triumph now in Him, |
| | The Cross the touchstone that makes me His |
| | own. |
