514. Not my own, but saved by Jesus

1 Not my own, but saved by Jesus,
Who redeemed me by his blood;
Gladly I accept the message,
I belong to Christ the Lord.

Refrain:
Not my own, not my own,
Saviour, I belong to thee;
All I have and all I hope for,
Thine for all eternity.

2 Not my own; to Christ my Saviour,
I, believing, trust my soul,
Everything to him committed,
While eternal ages roll.

3 Not my own; my time, my talents,
Freely all to Christ I bring,
To be used in joyful service
For the glory of my King.

4 Not my own; the Lord accepts me,
One among the ransomed throng
Who in Heaven shall see his glory,
And to Jesus Christ belong.
