Lord, A Vessel Thou Has Fashioned

Author: Stephen Popovich Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Lord, a vessel Thou hast fashioned Lyrics: 1 Lord, a vessel Thou hast fashioned, Not to serve the world we see, Where the snares of futile passion Seek to re-envelop me, But to move in righteous freedom, In the world of my first birth, By advancing in Thy kingdom For Thy use upon the earth. 2 Wealth and pleasure gild the marriage Of hell’s words to vanity— Binding all the cursed that perish; Lost in dust eternally. Prune in me that which is empty All that withers as a flower. Grow in me of heaven’s plenty Giving increase by Thy power. 3 Thou hast freed us like a sparrow Reaching toward an upward goal Of Thy calling, near yet narrow, From hell’s chains to heaven’s fold; Lift my heart to know the voices Of Thy praise in heaven sung, And below to count the choicest Earthly treasures as but dung. 4 We have died in Thee now risen To the Father’s throne above Where our life is firmly hidden In Thy fellowship of love. Help my hands be true and holy And my feet steadfast and sure, That my works at Thy appearing Will as gold and jewels endure. Used With Tune: NETTLETON
