The freedom of the soul,
When passed beyond all earthly bribe
To God's complete control.
All things are his, yes, life, and death,
Things present or to come;
In Christ he draws in peace each breath,
In Christ he finds his home.
To share with Him His throne,
'Tis passing strange that we refuse
To be our Lord's alone.
O never speak of sacrifice!
A privilege untold
Is to be His at any price,
In Calv'ry's hosts enrolled.
The fragment for the whole—
All men and all events alike
Must serve the ransomed soul.
All things are yours when you are His,
And He and you are one;
A boundless life in Him there is,
And kingdom yet to come.

How true. What freedom when we don't love our soul life or the world.

Praise Him! Though He is a King and we are nothing He still choose us. What a privilege untold.

To serve our King is not a sacrifice but it is a great privilege untold..I am happy that I am part of His economy, serving with the Body. Amen.

How wonderful this song is! It remains one of our all-time favorite here in France -- we often just refer to it as "Craig's song" in memory of the brother who first taught it to us. God bless you, Craig -- and brother Bill!

Inspire me to consecrate myself to the Lord now and then. Amen.
