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 was just studying a pamphlet this evening and then this song came out of my mouth. I had to search the lyrics and sing it all through.

Indeed, it's a prayer hymn

Now I owe you my life

When I sing and concentrate on the words of total surrender it is my prayer that God makes me an instrument of use in His hands. That all parts of my body (members) will yield to His will

A song of personal revival , a total surrender to the will of the father . We will waste all we are, have and bring untold pain and regrets to our soul if we fail to surrender them to him for his use

I closed my eyes to pray this morning and this song came to lips. I haven't thought of it in a long while. I knew I was to sing it to Jesus. Indeed, I will again each morning, consecrate my heart of love to my Savior of love.

Each morning I sing this song, I feel refreshed. It's to me a song of consecration and rededication. Asking God to take all I have and use to his glory is not just a song but a total submission, surrender and total yieldedness to the will and purpose of God for me. Its just like giving God back all he's given me body wise and telling the devil hey there! Am not for you and you can't have any of me cos I have given it all to God Hallelujah! Glory be to God.

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.
