Strengthen my hands

Strengthen for service, Lord,
the hands that have taken holy things;
may the ears which have heard your word
 be deaf to clamour and dispute;
may the tongues which have sung your praise
be free from deceit;
may the eyes which have seen
the tokens of your love
 shine with the light of hope;
and may the bodies which have been fed
with your body
 be refreshed with the fullness of your life;
glory to you for ever.
