647. Take My Life, O Lord, Renew

1 Take my life, O Lord, renew,
consecrate my heart to you;
take my moments and my days;
let me sing your ceaseless praise.

2 Take my wealth, all I possess,
make me rich in faithfulness.
Take my mind that I may use
ev'ry pow'r as you should choose.

3 Take my moments and my will,
all your purpose to fulfill.
Take my heart - it is your own;
it shall be your royal throne.

4 Take my love; my Lord, I pour
at your feet its treasure store;
take myself, and I will be
yours for all eternity.
