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.

Just woke up to sing this song how amazing and refreshing the words in this song.

It has been in my heart for some time and I am just telling Lord to make my life His own. No longer do I want to continue with this journey on my own... I need Him!


Lynn

Largo, FL, United States

After a heartfelt prayer of giving myself to the Lord as I begin my day, the words from this hymn welled up inside. I sang as a child, but had not thought of it in 60 years or so. I knew then my prayer had been heard. Loving the Lord more and more.

What a heart-touching hymn.

LORD, My Father take my LIFE.

Love it. Thank you!

Hearing this tune for the first time, this morning set my soul a-dancing as I released and re-dedicated my all, especially my intellect to the Lord in boundless love for the Kingdom.


Michael

My soul and mind was touched immediately this song was sang today in my church at XFS PJ at 8;30am mass. It is really a soul touching song. Lord almighty my soul will always praise You forever as long as I live in this planet earth.


Jonah Aw

This has become my new favorite hymn of all time. I recently spent a week of fellowship up in the mountains with a group of amazing people and after a day of returning to the real world I turned back to this song of praise to the only One who can and will forgive.


Philip Danso

Accra, Ghana

And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

Luke 9:23 KJV

Whiles meditating upon the above scripture since yesterday morning, I sought a song or hymn which spur me on to the call to consecration, and this wonderful Holy Spirit inspired hymn rhymed through my spirit.

I pray the Almighty God grant me grace to live my daily life bearing my cross in the joy and sweet sound of this hymn. Amen

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.
