Text: | Take My Life |
Author: | Frances Ridley Havergal |
Tune: | HENDON |
Composer: | Henri A. César Malan |
1 Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to thee.
Take my moments and my days;
Let them flow in ceaseless praise,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
2 Take my hands and let them move
At the impulse of thy love.
Take my will and make it thine;
It shall be no longer mine,
It shall be no longer mine.
3 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.
4 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.
