Alone Make Much of You

With mercy make me free Posted: 30 Jan 2011 12:01 AM PST “O Jesus, take my bent away For thinking much of me, And kill my pride, and from this day With mercy make me free. O Jesus, grant the gift to see The treasure that you are, And as the night eclipses me, O be my Morning Star. And now if I should serve, or lead, Or give, or mercy show, O Jesus, let my love be freed, And like a river flow. O Jesus, be the treasure of My heart and all I do, And may the river of my love Alone make much of you.” — John Piper "Using Our Gifts in Proportion to Our Faith, Part 2" (Minneapolis, Minn.: Desiring God Ministries, Nov. 7, 2004)
