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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

I just sang this hymn today and it lifted up my soul as it sang in my heart.

It is many years ago since I last sang it.

I have always loved it.

Ow what a song.

This song is my prayer. Oh how I pray that God delivers me from the sinful nature and take my life and let it be.

In Galatians 2 v 20 Paul says its no longer I who lives but Christ.

I sat in my house praying with my son and reflecting on how to do things that will fulfil The Holy Spirit's Desires and not mine own desires according to Romans 8. I wanted my life to be in tune with God to remember how God has helped me all through my life. So many songs came to my mind. I recall singing Order my Steps in Your word, We will worship the Lamb of glory, There is none holy as the Lord, Every new day your glory unfolds. To round off our devotion, this hymn came to my mind but I was only able to remember the first verse so I decided to google it and I got all this glorious verses. I pray that am able to live according to all the Spirit filled words because this hymns just summed up what I was desiring in my daily life. God You are awesome, meeting us always at the very point of our needs. Thank You Sweet Holy Spirit for this song of Consecration in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen and amen!

Verse 5 is my heart’s prayer. If I only know how that can be made possible. May the Good Lord bless you. Amen.

Lord, I use this divine song and I consecrate my spirit, soul, and body to You. As I seek You continually, I continue to be holy, blameless, without spot or blemish in the power of my Holy Spirit in Christ Jesus name.

Revised version:

1. Take my life, and let it be

Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;

Take my moments and my days,

Let them flow in ceaseless praise.

Chorus:

For me, You were mocked and crucified;

For me, willingly You bled and died.

Lord, my life and love I willingly outpour

And will serve You ever more.

2. Take my hands and feet, I pray,

For Thy work, to run Thy way.

Take my lips that I may sound

Word of truth to those around.

3. Take my silver and my gold;

Not a mite would I withhold;

Take my intellect, and use

Every power as Thou shalt choose.

4. Make my heart and will Thine own;

They belong to Thee alone.

Take my love; my Lord, I pour

At Thy feet its treasure-store.

5. Take me, Lord, till I've become

Ever joined to Thee as one.

Take myself, and I will be

Ever, only, all for Thee.
