Jesus, cast a look on me; Give me sweet simplicity; Make me poor, and keep me low, Seeking only Thee to know. |

Weaned from all my lordly self, Weaned from all the miser’s pelf, Weaned from all the scorner’s ways, Weaned from all the lust of praise. |

All that feeds my busy pride, Cast it evermore aside; Bid my will to Thine submit, Lay me humbly at Thy feet. |

Make me like a little child, Of my strength and wisdom spoiled; Seeing only in Thy light, Walking only in Thy might; |

Leaning on Thy loving breast, Where a weary soul may rest; Feeling well the peace of God Flowing from Thy precious blood. |

In this posture let me live, And hosannas daily give; In this temper let me die, And hosannas ever cry. |

Make me like a little child,
Of my strength and wisdom spoiled;
Seeing only in Thy light,
Walking only in Thy might

Great song to remind us we need to shed our pride and be found in Him only!
