The New Christian Hymnal ‎#182

182. Jesus, Master, Whose I Am

1. Jesus, Master, whose I am,
Purchased, Thine alone to be,
By Thy blood, O spotless lamb,
Shed so willingly for me,
Let my heart be all Thine own,
Let me live to Thee alone.

2. Jesus, Master, I am Thine:
Keep me faithful, keep me near;
Let Thy presence in me shine,
All my homeward way to cheer,
Jesus, at Thy feet I fall,
O be Thou my All in all.

3. Jesus, Master, whom I serve,
Tho' so feebly and so ill,
Strengthen hand and heart and nerve
All Thy bidding to fulfill;
Open Thou mine eyes to see
All the work Thou hast for me.

4. Jesus, Master, wilt Thou use
One who owes Thee more than all?
As Thou wilt! I would not choose;
Only let me hear Thy call.
Jesus, let me always be
In Thy service glad and free.
