Take my life and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in endless praise.
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee.
Take my hands and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love.
Take my lips and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee.
Take my voice and let me sing,
Always, only for my King.
Take my silver and my gold,
Not a mite would I withhold.
Take my intellect and use
Every pow’r as Thou shalt choose.
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.
Take my love, my Lord, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure store.
Take myself and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee.
The Lord is my Keeper, Amen.
The Lord is my Keeper (Always, Only), Amen.

Perfect Peace
08:54
|

A mind at perfect peace with God,
Oh what a word is this?
A sinner reconciled through blood,
yes this indeed is peace.
By nature and by practice far,
so very far from God.
Yet now by grace brought near to Him,
through faith in Jesus’ blood.
I am home, home in your love
How near, how very near to God,
more near I cannot be.
Placed in the person of His son,
I am as near as He.
So dear, so very dear to God,
I cannot dearer be.
The love wherewith He loved the Son,
such is His love for me.
I am home, home in your love
In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone can give me rest
You have put more joy in my heart, than all this world could ever give
You alone are my chosen portion, and my overflowing cup
In you I have a beautiful inheritance
I am home, in your love
As I turn my ear to your voice, I can hear you speaking tenderly
You say, “My son, you are always with me, and all I have is yours”
You and you alone are my exceeding great reward
Why should I ever anxious be,
when such a God is mine?
He watches o’er me night and day,
and tells me “Mine is thine.”

There’s a Man in the glory
Whose Life is for me.
He’s pure and He’s holy,
Triumphant and free.
He’s wise and He’s loving
How tender is He!
His Life in the glory,
My life must be;
His Life in the glory,
My life must be.
There’s a Man in the glory
Whose Life is for me.
He overcame Satan;
From bondage He’s free.
In Life He is reigning;
How kingly is He!
His Life in the glory,
My life must be;
His Life in the glory,
My life must be.
There’s a Man in the glory
Whose Life is for me.
In Him is no sickness;
No weakness has He.
He’s strong and in vigor,
How buoyant is He!
His Life in the glory
My life may be;
His Life in the glory
My life may be.
There’s a Man in the glory
Whose Life is for me.
His peace is abiding;
How patient is He!
He’s joyful and radiant,
Expecting to see
His Life in the glory
Lived out in me;
His Life in the glory
Lived out in me.

O the bitter shame and sorrow,
That a time could ever be,
When I let the Savior’s pity plead in vain, and proudly answered,
“All of self, and none of Thee!”
Yet He found me; I beheld Him
Bleeding on th’accursed tree,
Heard Him pray, “Forgive them, Father!” And my wistful heart said faintly,
“Some of self, and some of Thee!”
Day by day His tender mercy,
Healing, helping, full and free,
Sweet and strong, and oh! so patient, brought me lower, while I whispered,
“Less of self, and more of Thee!”
Higher than the highest heavens,
Deeper than the deepest sea,
Lord, Thy love at last hath conquered; Grant me now my heart’s petition;
“None of self, and all of Thee!”
“None of self, and all of Thee!”
He must increase; I must decrease.
He must become the greatest; And I the least
The Lord is my Keeper, Amen.
The Lord is my Keeper (Always, Only), Amen.
