The Cyber Hymnal ‎#14779

14779. Consecration

1 Shall peace on earth be waiting,
Shall man with man contend,
While Jesus stands inviting
The soul to love’s blest end?

Refrain:
By love and sweet submission,
The Master’s voice obey;
Come, join the heav’nly mission,
And watch and work and pray!

3 Shall passion still be able
From truth to lead astray?
Shall from the Lord’s free table
The hungry turn away? [Refrain]

3 Nay, on Thine altar holy,
With unreservèd mind,
To Christ and God all glory;
Help us our hearts to bind. [Refrain]
