This hymn has a unique tune.

 
 1 

May the mind of Christ my Savior

Live in me from day to day,

By His love and pow'r controlling

All I do and say.

 
 2 

May the Word of Christ dwell richly

In my heart from hour to hour,

So that all may see I triumph

Only through His pow'r.

 
 3 

May the peace of Christ my Savior

Rule my life in every thing,

That I may be calm to comfort

Sick and sorrowing.

 
 4 

May the love of Jesus fill me,

As the waters fill the sea;

Him exalting, self abasing,

This is victory.

 
 5 

May I run the race before me,

Strong and brave to face the foe,

Looking only unto Jesus

As I onward go.

 
 6 

May His beauty rest upon me

As I seek the lost to win,

And may they forget the channel,

Seeing only Him.
