How I praise Thee, precious Savior,
That Thy love laid hold of me;
Thou hast saved and cleansed and filled me,
That I might Thy channel be.
That Thy love laid hold of me;
Thou hast saved and cleansed and filled me,
That I might Thy channel be.
Channels only, blessed Master,
But with all Thy wondrous grace,
Flowing through us, Thou canst use us
Every hour in every place.
But with all Thy wondrous grace,
Flowing through us, Thou canst use us

Just a channel, full of blessing,
To the thirsty hearts around;
To tell out Thy full salvation,
All Thy loving message sound.

Emptied that Thou shouldest fill me,
A clean vessel in Thine hand;
With no strength but as Thou givest
Graciously with each command.
A clean vessel in Thine hand;
With no strength but as Thou givest
Graciously with each command.

Witnessing Thy grace to save me,
Setting free from self and sin;
Thou hast bought me to possess me,
In Thy fulness, Lord, come in.
Setting free from self and sin;
Thou hast bought me to possess me,
In Thy fulness, Lord, come in.

O Lord, fill now with Thy Spirit
Hearts that full surrender know;
That the streams of living water
From our inner man may flow.

I just came back from the hospital for a bacteria infection treatment, as I lay down on my bed this hymn keeps coming to my heart.

Just woke up with this old high school hymn on my mind so I started to search for it. I had lost my Advent hymnal in the mail years ago. God in his mercy brings back to my mind all the time, wonderful hymns which, sadly, are no longer sung. Now I have a loooong list of songs, choruses, hymns, poems from childhood, high school and college. These cheer my heart. Thanks to God for preserving this beautifull song.

No longer I but Christ. Now a channel only, and gladly so, for Christ to flow through. Treasure in my earthly vessel at last! Blessed be the name of the LORD.
