568. Take My Life and Let It Be Consecrated
1 Take my life and let it be
consecrated, Lord, to thee;
take my hands and let them move
at the impulse of thy love,
at the implulse of thy love.
2 Take my feet and let them be
swift and beautiful for thee;
take my voice and let me sing
always, only, for my King,
always, only for my King.
3 Take my lips and let them be
filled with messages from thee;
take my silver and my gold,
not a mite would I withhold,
not a mite would I withold.
4 Take my love, my God, I pour
at thy feet its treasure store;
take myself and I will be
ever, only, all for thee,
ever, only, all for thee.
