Songs for Work and Worship ‎#7

7. Accept My Consecration

1 My body, soul, and spirit,
Dear Lord, to thee I bring;
Tho’ paltry, weak, unworthy,
Accept my offering.

Chorus:
Accept my consecration!
O grant thy full salvation!
This very hour thy peace and pow’r
On me bestow.

2 Thy gifts of pow’r and blessing
Shall still be all thine own;
Thy glory, not my pleasure,
Shall govern me alone. [Chorus]

3 Thy tho’ts alone to cherish,
Thy blessed words to speak,
Thy life to live—what blessing
For one so prone and weak. [Chorus]

4 Accept my consecration,
I would not aught withhold;
Let thy will be my pleasure,
My home thine inner fold. [Chorus]
