Oh, not to fill the mouth of fame
My longing soul is stirred:
Oh, give me a. diviner name!
Call me thy servant, Lord!
No longer would my soul be known
As uncontrolled and free;
Oh, not mine own, oh, not mine own!
Lord, I belong to thee!
Thy servant,—me thy servant choose;
Naught of thy claim abate!
The glorious name I would not lose,
Nor change the sweet estate.
In life, in death, on earth, in heaven,
This is the name for me!
The same sweet style and title given
Through all eternity.
