1. O Jesus Christ, grow Thou in me,
  And all things else recede;
  My heart be daily nearer Thee,
  From sin be daily freed.
(Chorus:)
  Each day let Thy supporting might
  My weakness still embrace;
  My darkness vanish in Thy light,
  Thy life my death efface.
2. In Thy bright beams which on me fall,
  Fade every evil thought;
  That I am nothing, Thou art all,
  I would be daily taught.
3. More of Thy glory let me see,
  Thou Holy, Wise, and True;
  I would Thy living image be,
  In joy and sorrow too.
(Chorus:)
  Each day let Thy supporting might
  My weakness still embrace;
  My darkness vanish in Thy light,
  Thy life my death efface.
4. Fill me with gladness from above,
  Hold me by strength divine;
  Lord, let the glow of Thy great love
  Through all my being shine.
5. Make this poor self grow less and less,
  Be Thou my life and aim;
  Oh, make me daily through Thy grace
  More meet to bear Thy name.
(Chorus:)
  Each day let Thy supporting might
  My weakness still embrace;
  My darkness vanish in Thy light,
  Thy life my death efface.
