1 Since I gave myself to Jesus,
Since his call I did obey,
O a brighter joy is dawning
On my soul from day to day!
More and more of love and goodness
In my Savior I can see,
More and more of richest blessing
Doe his mercy give to me.

Chorus:
A song of gladness
In my heart,
O there's a song of glad thanksgiving
Ever ringing in my heart.

2 Since I gave myself to Jesus,
Placed my life 'neath his control,
In the service of my Master,
Swift the happy moments roll.
Since I gave myself to Jesus,
Toil's become a blessed thing,
For each task, however lowly,
Is a service for my King. [Chorud]

3 Since I gave myself to Jesus,
I have found a Friend so dear;
One who loves the same forever,
Always faithful, always near.
He has never failed nor left me
Since I took him for my Guide;
Since I gave myself to Jesus,
I am fully satisfied. [Chorus]
