Author: Frances R. Havergal, 1836-1879 Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #447 (1934) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.
Take my moments and my days;
Let them flow in endless praise,
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,
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 for Thee,
Filled with messages for Thee.
4 Take my silver and my gold;
Not a mite would I withhold,
Take my intellect, and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose,
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,
It shall be Thy royal throne.
6 Take my love: my God, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure store.
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee,
Ever, only, all for Thee. Topics: Consecration; Good Works; Christ as King; Christ as Lord; Love for Christ; Love for God; Post-Communion; Profession of Faith; Service; Stewardship; Will of God; Witnessing; Christian Work Languages: English Tune Title: HENDON
