Make me to be Feeble, Lord

Trying to set these words to music ... would make a great song!!

Make me to be Feeble, Lord

Finding me enchanted now by all this worldly dust,
Seeing that I'm striving, Lord, for things that only rust,
Captivate my scattered thoughts--Transfix my gaze on Thee.
Cause me to be poorer, Lord, that Thine the glory be.

Trembling for the future's store--Not trusting in Thy grace,
Fearing what Thy will might be, I dare not seek Thy face.
Drown my fears within the depths of love Thou hast for me,
Cause me to be trusting, Lord, that Thine the glory be.

Serving Thee by my own might when I'm too weak to stand,
Trusting still in all my strength and not Thy mighty hand,
Empty me of all my pow'r and fill the void with Thee.
Make me to be feeble, Lord, that Thine the glory be.

Every time Thou givest strength, I claim the praise as mine,
Stealing glory for myself when honor should be Thine.
Mortify my prideful heart to give all praise to Thee.
Make me to be humble, Lord, that Thine the glory be.
