All who live in love live in God, and God lives in them (1 John 4:16; NLT).
1. May I live
Within your hands,
Rejoicing, Lord,
In your commands.
2. May I live
Within your mind,
Praising you,
For you are kind.
3. May I live
Within your heart,
Delighting, Lord,
To play my part.
4. May I live
Within your soul,
Trusting you
To make me whole.
