Author: Sarah G. Stock 1838-1898 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16483 First Line: The body, Lord, is ours to keep Lyrics:
1 The body, Lord, is ours to keep
In glowing health and strength for Thee,
That thro’ its life Thy life may live,
Thy will more strong and swift and free.
My body, Lord, is Thine to keep,
Strong and swift and free.
2 The mind, O Lord, is ours to keep
In cleanliness and purity,
That every thought and word and deed
May own itself akin to Thee.
My mind, O Lord, is Thine to keep,
Clean and pure and free.
3 The soul, O Lord, is ours to keep
In close companionship with thee,
The soul is body, mind and heart,
And these are but a unity!
My soul, O Lord, is Thine to keep
Companion with Thee.
