1. Heart and mind, possessions, Lord,
I offer unto Thee;
All these were Thine, Lord;
Thou didst give them all to me.
Wondrous are Thy doings unto me.
Plans and my thoughts and everything I ever do
Are dependent on Thy will and love alone.
I commit my spirit unto Thee.

2. Heart and mind, possessions, Lord,
I offer unto Thee;
Thou art the Way, the Truth;
Thou art the Life.
Sinful, I commit myself unto Thee.
Jesus Christ is filling all the heart of me.
He can give me victory o’er all that threatens me.
Jesus Christ is filling all my heart.
