Make Me a Captive, Lord

Author: George Matheson, 1842-1906 Hymnal: NCH1929 #92 (1929) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord, And then I shall be free; Force me to render up my sword, And I shall conqu'ror be. I sink in life's alarms When by myself I stand; Impris'n me in Thy mighty arms, And strong shall be my hand. 2 My heart is weak and poor Until it master find: It has no spring of action sure - It varies with the wind: It cannot freely move Till Thou hast wrought its chain; Enslave it with Thy matchless love, And deathless it shall reign. 3 My pow'r is faint and low Till I have learned to serve, It wants the needed fire to glow, It wants the breeze to nerve; It cannot drive the world Until itself be driv'n; Its flag can only be unfurled When Thou shalt breathe from heav'n. 4 My will is not my own Till Thou hast made it Thine; If it would reach a monarch's throne It must its crown resign: It only stands unbent Amid the clashing strife, When on Thy bosom it has leant, And found in Thee its life.

When Thou, my righteous Judge, shalt come To take Thy ransomed people home, Shall I among them stand? Shall such a worthless worm as I, Who sometimes am afraid to die, Be found at Thy right hand? 2. I love to meet among them now, Before Thy gracious feet to bow, Though vilest of them all: But can I bear the piercing tho't, What if my name should be left out, When Thou for them shalt call? 3. Prevent, prevent it by Thy grace; Be Thou, dear Lord, my hiding-place. In this th' accepted day; Thy pard'ning voice, O let me hear, To still my unbelieving fear, Nor let me fall, I pray. 4. Let me among Thy saints be found, Whene'er th' archangel's trump shall sound, To see Thy smiling face; Then loudest of the crowd I'll sing, While heav'n resounding mansions ring With shouts of sov'reign grace.
