Master, I own thy lawful claim

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #416 (1873) Lyrics: 1 Master, I own thy lawful claim; Thine, wholly thine I long to be; Thou seest, at last, I willing am, Where'er thou go'st, to follow thee, Myself in all things to deny, Thine, wholly thine, to live and die. 2 Whate'er my sinful flesh requires, For thee I cheerfully forego, My covetous and vain desires, My hopes of happiness below, My senses' and my passions' food, And all my thirst for creature good. 3 Pleasure and wealth and praise no more Shall lead my captive soul astray; My fond pursuits I all give o'er, Thee, only thee, resolved t' obey; My own in all things to resign, And know no other will but thine.

Hymnal: A Pocket Hymn Book #HXIX (1791) Lyrics: 1 Master, I own thy lawful claim; Thine, wholly thine I long to be; Thou seest, at last I willing am, Where'er thou goest to follow thee: Myself in all things to deny: Thine, wholly thine, to live and die. 2 Whate'er my sinful flesh requires, For thee I cheerfully forego; My covetous and vain desires, My hopes of happiness below; My senses' and my passions' food, And all my thirst for creature-good. 3 Pleasure, and wealth, and praise no more Shall lead my captive soul astray: My fond pursuits I all give o'er, Thee, only thee, resolv'd t' obey; My own in all things to resign, And know no other will than thine. 4 All pow'r is thine in earth or heav'n; All fulness dwells in thee alone; Whate'er I have was freely giv'n; Nothing but sin I call my own: Other propriety, disclaim; Thou only art the great I AM. 5 Therefore to thee I all resign; Being thou art, and love, and pow'r: Thy only will be done, not mine! Thee, Lord, let earth and heav'n adore? Flow back the rivers to the sea, And let our all be lost in thee! Topics: For Believers Suffering Languages: English
