consecrated, Lord, to thee.
Take my moments and my days,
let them flow in ceaseless praise.
2 Take my hands, and let them move
at the impulse of thy love.
ttake my feet, and let them be
swift and beautiful for thee.
3 Take my voice, and let me sing
always, only, for my King.
Take my lips, and let them be
filled with messages from thee.
4 Take my silver and my gold,
nothing, Lord, would I withhold.
Take my intellect, and use
every power as thou shalt choose.
5 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.
6 Take my love: my Lord, I pour
at thy feet its treasure-store.
Take myself, and I will be
ever, only, all for thee. Topics: Commitment; Consecration; Devotion; Evangelism; Our Gifts to God Used With Tune: CHARLTON
