Jesus, Redeemer and my one Inspirer

1
Jesus, Redeemer and my one Inspirer,
  Heat in my coldness, set my life aglow.
Break down my barriers; draw, yea, draw me nigher.
  Thee would I know, whom it is life to know.
2
Deepen me, rid me of the superficial;
  From pale delusion set my spirit free;
All the entangled in me quick unravel;
  Pluck forth each thread of insincerity.
3
Thy vows are on me, oh to serve Thee truly
  Love perfectly, in purity obey—
Burn, burn, O Fire, O Wind, now winnow throughly;
  O Sword, awake against the flesh and slay.
