consecrated, Lord, to thee.
Take my moments and my days;

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.

ever, only, all for thee,

bend our pride to thy control;
shame our wanton, selfish gladness,

to the evils we deplore;
let the search for thy salvation
be our glory evermore.
