Lyics

TAKE my life, and let it be

Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;

Take my hands, and let them move

At the impulse of Thy love.--CHO.



Chorus.--All to Thee, all to Thee,

	Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.



Take my feet, and let them be

Swift and beautiful for Thee;

Take my voice, and let me sing

Always, only, for my King.--CHO.



Take my lips, and let them be

Fill'd with messages from Thee;

Take my silver and my gold,

Not a mite would I withhold.--CHO.



Take my moments and my days,

Let them flow in endless praise;

Take my intellect, and use

Every pow'r as Thou shalt choose,--CHO.



Take my will, and make it Thine;

It shall be no longer mine,

Take my heart, it is Thine own:

It shall be Thy royal throne.--CHO.



Take my love, my God; I pour

At Thy feet its treasure store;

Take myself, and I will be

Ever, only, all for Thee.--CHO.
