Author: L. S. L. Hymnal: Jubilate #85 (1917) First Line: I have made my choice to follow Christ each day Refrain First Line: Thine for service when the days are drear Lyrics: 1 I have made my choice to follow Christ each day, I am Thine for service, Lord; Tho’ I sometimes falter on the thorny way, I am Thine for service, Lord. Refrain: Thine for service when the days are drear, Thine for service when the skies are clear; Yes, Thine for service thro’ the coming years, I am Thine for service, Lord. 2 Let me idle not the precious hours away, I am Thine for service, Lord; As Thy voice shall bid me, I will go or stay, I am Thine for service, Lord. [Refrain] 3 I will never ask Thee “How,” or “Where,” or “Why?” For I’ve cast my lot with Thee Till the glory gates shall open by and by, With a “Welcome Home” for me.
