Hello out there. I'm looking for the lyrics to the hymn "Set My Soul Afire" by Gene Bartlett and published circa 1965.

Thanks,
Dave

"SET MY SOUL AFIRE"

SET MY SOUL AFIRE, LORD, FOR THY HOLY WORD,
BURN IT DEEP WITH-IN ME, LET THY VOICE BE HEARD;
MILLIONS GROPE IN DARKNESS, IN THIS DAY AND HOUR,
I WILL BE A WITNESS, FILL ME WITH THY POW'R

CHORUS:

SET MY SOUL AFIRE, LORD, SET MY SOUL AFIRE,
MAKE MY LIFE A WITNESS OF THY SAVING POW'R,
MILLIONS GROPE IN DARKNESS, WAITING FOR THY WORD,
SET MY SOUL AFIRE, LORD, SET MY SOUL AFIRE

SET MY SOUL AFIRE, LORD, FOR THE LOST IN SIN,
GIVE TO ME A PASSION AS I SEEK TO WIN;
HELP ME NOT TO FALTER, NEVER LET ME FAIL,
FILL ME WITH THY SPIRIT, LET THY WILL PREVAIL,

REPEAT CHORUS:

SET MY SOUL AFIRE, LORD, IN MY DAILY LIFE,
FOR TOO LONG I'VE WANDERED IN THIS DAY OF STRIFE;
NOTHING ELSE WILL MATTER, BUT TO LIVE FOR THEE,
I WILL BE A WITNESS, FOR CHRIST LIVES IN ME

REPEAT CHORUS:
