1. Lord, teach us how to pray,
  Not as the nations do in vain,
  But turn us from our way,
  And cause us, Lord, to call on You each day��
  Lord Jesus, grow in us.
2. Lord, You're the seed of life;
  You've sown Yourself into our heart,
  And now You have a start;
  So day by day more life to us impart��
  Lord Jesus, grow in us.
3. Lord Jesus, soften us;
  You know the source from which we came.
  By calling on Your name,
  Lord, let no earth unturned nor rocks remain��
  Lord Jesus, grow in us.
4. Lord, how Your light makes clear
  That we could not but e'er fail You;
  Yet there's a message true,
  The seed of life within us will break through��
  Lord Jesus, grow in us.
5. Make us in spirit poor;
  Lord, take whate'er we think we know.
  We'll open to life's flow,
  And thus take in the life that makes us grow��
  Lord Jesus, grow in us.
6. Lord, make us pure in heart;
  For we'll be not content until
  You all our being fill,
  O Lord, renew our mind, emotion, will��
  Lord Jesus, grow in us.
7. Yes, Lord, impress our heart,
  That we must take You in each day;
  The seed will have its way;
  Your growing brings the kingdom here to stay��
  Lord Jesus, grow in us.
8. Amen��The growth in life!
  There's nothing that Your life can't do;
  Our every part renew.
  We'll make it, we'll make it just by You.
  Lord Jesus, grow in us.
  Lord Jesus, grow in us.
