Take my lips and let them be filled with messages from thee, filled with messages from 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 Lord, I pour at thy feet its treasure store. Take myself, and I will be ever, only, all for thee, ever, only, all for thee.

Above the thorns of choking care, the gilded baits of worldly love. 4 Thee I may I set at my right hand, whose eyes my inmost substance see, and labor on at thy command, and offer all my works to thee. 5 Give me to bear thy easy yoke, and ev'ry moment watch and pray; and still to things eternal look, and hasten to thy glorious day; 6 for thee delightfully employ whate'er thy bounteous grace hath giv'n. and run my course with even joy, and closely walk with thee to heav'n.

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,999 hymnals Scripture: Romans 12:1 Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross on which the Prince of glory died, my richest gain I count but loss, and pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, save in the death of Christ my God; all the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his blood. 3 See, from his head, his hands, his feet, sorrow and love flow mingled down. Did e’er such love and sorrow meet, or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, that were a present far too small; love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all.

Alas! and Did My Savior Bleed?

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2,306 hymnals Scripture: Romans 12:1 First Line: Alas! and did my Savior bleed Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Savior bleed, and did my sovereign die? Would he devote that sacred head for sinners such as I? 2 Was it for crimes that I have done, he groaned upon the tree? Amazing pity, grace unknown, and love beyond degree! 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, and shut its glories in, when Christ, the mighty Maker, died for his own creature's sin. 4 Thus might I hide my blushing face while his dear cross appears; dissolve my heart in thankfulness, and melt mine eyes to tears. 5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay the debt of love I owe; here, Lord, I give myself away; 'tis all that I can do.

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. Topics: The Christian Life Obedience; Forsaking the World; Riches Used With Tune: WYCLIFF

We should never be discouraged– Take it to the Lord in prayer! Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our ev'ry weakness– Take it to the Lord in prayer! 3 Are we weak and heavy-laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge– Take it to the Lord in prayer! Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He'll take and shield thee– Thou wilt find a solace there.

Help Us Accept Each Other

Author: Fred Kaan Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: Romans 12:10 Lyrics: 1 Help us accept each other as Christ accepted us; teach us as sister, brother, each person to embrace. Be present, Lord, among us and bring us to believe we are ourselves accepted, and meant to love and live. 2 Teach us, O Lord, your lessons, as in our daily life we struggle to be human and search for hope and faith. Teach us to care for people, for all, not just for some, to love them as we find them or as they may become. 3 Let your acceptance change us, so that we may be moved in living situations to do the truth in love, to practice your acceptance until we know by heart the table of forgiveness and laughter's healing art. 4 Lord, for today's encounters with all who are in need, who hunger for acceptance, for righteousness and bread, we need new eyes for seeing, new hands for holding on; renew us with your Spirit, Lord, free us, make us one!
