Text: | Take my life, and let it be |
Author: | Frances Ridley Havergal, 1836 - 79 |
Tune: | PATMOS |
Composer: | William Henry Havergal, 1793 - 1870 |
1 Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to thee;
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in endless praise.
2 Take my hands, and let them move
At the impulse of thy love;
Take my feet, and let them be
Swift and beautiful for thee.
3 Take my voice, and let me sing
Always, only, for my King;
Take my lips, and let them be
Filled with messages from thee. A-men.
4 Take my silver and my gold,
Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my intellect, and use
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.
6 Take my love; my Lord, I pour
At thy feet its treasure-store;
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for thee.
Amen.
