All for Jesus!

All my being’s ransomed pow'rs, all my thoughts and words and doings, all my days and all my hours. 2 Let my hands perform his bidding, let my feet run in his ways; let my eyes see Jesus only, let my lips speak forth his praise. 3 Worldlings prize their gems of beauty, cling to gilded toys of dust, boast of wealth and fame and pleasure; only Jesus will I trust. 4 Since my eyes were fixed on Jesus, I’ve lost sight of all beside; so enchained my spirit’s vision, looking at the Crucified. 5 O what wonder! How amazing! Jesus, glorious King of kings, deigns to call me his beloved, lets me rest beneath his wings. Scripture: Romans 12:1 Used With Tune: WYCLIFF
