Representative Text

1 Take me, dear Saviour, oh do not refuse me,
Oft have I shrunk from Thy service divine;
Now I come pleading, Lord, take me and use me,
Use me, I pray Thee, in Thy way, not mine.

Refrain:
Use me, dear Saviour in service,
Use me in service divine,
Now I come pleading, Lord, take me and use me,
Use me, I pray Thee, in Thy way, not mine.

2 Take me, dear Saviour, and fill me with Thy pow’r,
Teach me how best I can glorify Thee;
Help me to serve Thee each day and each hour,
Take me, dear Saviour, for Thine would I be. [Refrain]

3 Take me, dear Lord; I renounce worldly pleasure,
Naught do I ask but Thy favor divine;
Thou art my all, Thou my heavenly treasure,
Use me, dear Saviour, in Thy way, not mine. [Refrain]
