1
Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
2
Take my hands, and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love;
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee,
Swift and beautiful for Thee.
At the impulse of Thy love;
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee,
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,
Filled with messages from Thee.
Always, only, for my King;
Take my lips, and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee,
Filled with messages from Thee.
4
Take my silver and my gold;
Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my intellect, and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose,
Every power as Thou shalt choose.
Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my intellect, and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose,
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,
It shall be Thy royal throne.
It shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart; it is Thine own;
It shall be Thy royal throne,
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,
Ever, only, all for Thee.
At Thy feet its treasure-store.
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee,
Ever, only, all for Thee.

Spending time with Jesus this morning and this hymn came to mind. I wanted to sing it but couldn't remember all of the verses. Found this and praised the Lord as I sang every single one. There are just no words to describe the love of God and the joy He gives us as we live for Him. May God bless you and keep you until we meet in Heaven.

The comment section makes me want to tear up😭, it took me a while to actually start feeling God as I do now.
I’m glad He kept me alive till I had this heartfelt connection and consciousness for Him.
I don’t know how my life would have been at the end of it, if I didn’t have God.
There would be no security, just panic wherever I finally found my soul.
Lord Jesus, I consecrate my life again, I want to do it everyday😭

What a precious him that touches the soul and draws us deeper and closer to God as we submit all to him.

I attended a Presbyterian School and I am familiar with this hymn. During my worship this morning, the Lord Jesus reminded of the hymn, and I sang it to His Holy Name YAH. Such a sweet and humbling hymn for those who understand.
Please keep yourself and your familles safe in the Lord Jesus Christ, because we are at the end times, and the devil has sent more demons on earth. Can’t you see, please wake up, please wake up. Thank You all saints of our Lord Jesus Christ. I am writing these words to you in tears, because I am humbled. Thank You for reading, and I pray The Holy Spirit leads you and yours. IJMN Amen.

Frances Havergal wrote the lyrics to this hymn. It shows a strong desire to sacrifice her life in every area. I read her biography. Her life was one of consecration. It was not just desire. It was hers life experience. Like Christ her life was a burnt offering. She seemed to put herself on the alter through out her life. What a sweet savor to her God. Now Her experience expressed in this hymn, is an encouragement to us to maintain our consecration.
