You formed me Lord from lifeless soil
You made me flesh and bone
Yet pour a minute drop of oil
Upon my heart of stone
A single drop of oil my King
A speck of liquid light
That I with joy one day may sing
When ended is the fight
The fight for righteousness and love
Through Christ Your Lamb and Son
Anoint my soul from high above
That victory may be won
Anoint me Lord for service here
With faith with hope and trust
With love that takes away all fear
And turns all doubt to dust
A drop to see me through each day
Throughout my darkest eve
A single drop along The Way
Where souls no longer greave
Anoint my head my troubled soul
My tortured heart set free
My eyes that I may see the goal
Where Christ would have me be
Only a minute drop my God
No need have I for more
With Jesus as my staff and rod
Victory’s ever sure
A drop of oil is all I crave
A drop from Jesus’ hand
To lift me from the common grave
Into The Promised Land
You made me flesh and bone
Yet pour a minute drop of oil
Upon my heart of stone
A single drop of oil my King
A speck of liquid light
That I with joy one day may sing
When ended is the fight
The fight for righteousness and love
Through Christ Your Lamb and Son
Anoint my soul from high above
That victory may be won
Anoint me Lord for service here
With faith with hope and trust
With love that takes away all fear
And turns all doubt to dust
A drop to see me through each day
Throughout my darkest eve
A single drop along The Way
Where souls no longer greave
Anoint my head my troubled soul
My tortured heart set free
My eyes that I may see the goal
Where Christ would have me be
Only a minute drop my God
No need have I for more
With Jesus as my staff and rod
Victory’s ever sure
A drop of oil is all I crave
A drop from Jesus’ hand
To lift me from the common grave
Into The Promised Land
