Author: | Matthew Bridges |
Tune: | EVENTIDE (SMART) |
Composer: | Henry Smart |
1 O God, accept my heart this day,
And make it always Thine,
That I from Thee no more may stray,
No more from Thee decline.
2 Before the cross of Him who died,
Behold, I prostrate fall;
Let ev'ry sin be crucified,
Let Christ be all in all!
3 Anoint me with Thy heavenly grace,
Adopt me for Thine own,
That I may see Thy glorious face,
And worship at Thy throne.
4 Let every thought, and work, and word
To Thee be ever given;
Then life shall be Thy service, Lord,
And death the gate of heaven.
Amen.
