Teach me how, teach me how;

Help me, help me now.
Refrain
Wholly Thine, wholly Thine,
Wholly Thine, this is my vow;
Wholly Thine, wholly Thine,
Wholly Thine, O Lord, just now.
2. What is worldly pleasure, wealth or fame,
Without Thee, without Thee?
I will leave them all for Thy dear name,
This my wealth shall be. [Refrain]
3. As I cast earth’s transient joys behind,
Come Thou near, come Thou near;
In Thy presence all in all I find,
’Tis my comfort here. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [I would be, dear Savior, wholly Thine]
Wholly Thine (Belden)
