Text: | Take My Life and Let It Be |
Author: | Frances R. Havergal |
Tune: | HENDON |
Composer: | Henri A. C. Malan |
1 Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;
Take my hands and let them move
At the impulse of thy love,
At the impulse of thy love.
2 Take my feet, and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee;
Take my voice, and let me sing,
Always, only, for my King,
Always, only, for my King.
3 Take my lips, and let them be
Filled with messages for Thee;
Take my silver and my gold,
Not a mite would I withhold,
Not a mite would I withhold.
4 Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise;
Take my intellect and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose,
Every power as Thou shalt choose.
5 Take my will and make it Thine,
It shall be no longer mine;
Take my heart, it is Thine own,
It shall be Thy royal throne,
It shall be Thy royal throne.
6 Take my love, my God, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure store;
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee,
Ever, only, all for Thee.
Amen.
