1 Kings 3:5-15

• [1Ki 3:5] And Dost Thou Say

  And dost Thou say, “Ask what thou wilt”? Lord, I would seize the golden hour; I pray to be released from guilt, And freed from sin and Satan’s power. More of Thy presence, Lord, impart, More of Thine image let me bear; Erect Thy throne within my heart, And reign without a rival there. Give me to read my pardon sealed, And from Thy joy to draw my strength; To have Thy boundless love revealed In all its height, and breadth, and length. Grant these requests—I ask no more, But to Thy care the rest resign; Living or dying, rich or poor, All shall be well if Thou art mine.

• [1Ki 3:9] Give Me, O Lord, Right Views Of Thee

  Give me, O Lord, right views of Thee, Thy glorious nature, love, and might; And draw my spirit’s eyes to see The things concealed from mortal sight; And in the soul which Thou hast wrought, O breathe the understanding thought. Give me, O Lord, right views of Thee, And of myself and purpose here; My life, my end, and destiny, My secret dreams of hope and fear; O Thou Who standst behind it all, To Thee for light I look and call. Give me, O Lord, right views of truth; And give me, too, the honest mind, Which of its freedom gives the proof In sweet forbearance broad and kind; Which will not barter, slight, or sell The truth it sees, but guard it well. Give me, O Lord, right views of truth; Thy all discerning Spirit give, To bring light in earliest youth Thy living words by which men live; Of all Thy gifts, I pray, impart A wise and understanding heart.
