Take My Life

TAKE MY LIFE AND LET IT BE CONSECRATED

by 

Frances Havergal

Take my life, and let it be 

Consecrated, Lord, to Thee; 

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; 

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 moments and my days; 

Let them flow in ceaseless praise. 

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.

There is something in Calvary 

that passes our understanding, 

and the words about the Precious Blood

on the knees of our spirit.

Joyful

JOYFUL, JOYFUL, WE ADORE THEE

by

Henry Van Dyke

Joyful, joyful, we adore You,

God of glory, Lord of love;

Hearts unfold like flow'rs before You,

Op'ning to the sun above.

Melt the clouds of sin and sadness;

Drive the dark of doubt away;

Giver of immortal gladness,

Fill us with the light of day!

All Your works with joy surround You,

Earth and heav'n reflect Your rays,

Stars and angels sing around You,

Center of unbroken praise;

Field and forest, vale and mountain,

Flow'ry meadow, flashing sea,

Chanting bird and flowing fountain

Praising You eternally!

Always giving and forgiving,

Ever blessing, ever blest,

Well-spring of the joy of living,

Ocean-depth of happy rest!

Loving Father, Christ our Brother,

Let Your light upon us shine;

Teach us how to love each other,

Lift us to the joy divine.

Mortals, join the mighty chorus,

Which the morning stars began;

God's own love is reigning o’er us,

Joining people hand in hand.

Ever singing, march we onward,

Victors in the midst of strife;

Joyful music leads us sunward

In the triumph song of life

 

Great is Thy Faithfulness

GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS

by

~Thomas O Chisholm

Great is thy faithfulness, O God, my Father;

There is no shadow of turning with thee.

Thou changest not, thy compassions, they fail not;

As thou hast been, thou forever wilt be.

Refrain:

Great is thy faithfulness,

Great is thy faithfulness,

Morning by morning new mercies I see.

All I have needed thy hand hast provided;

Great is thy faithfulness,

Lord unto me.

Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,

Sun, moon, and stars in their courses above

Join with all nature in manifold witness

To thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love. [Refrain]

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,

Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;

Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,

Blessings all mine and ten thousand beside. [Refrain]

 

Lamentations 3:22-23

Because of the Lord’s great love 

we are not consumed,

for his compassions never fail.

They are new every morning;

great is your faithfulness. 

~Lamentations 3:22-23
