I lift my heart to Thee

1
I lift my heart to Thee,
    Savior Divine,
  For Thou art all to me,
    And I am Thine;
Is there on earth a closer bond than this,
That my Beloved’s mine, and I am His?
2
Thine am I by all ties,
    And chiefly Thine,
  For through Thy sacrifice
    Thou, Lord, art mine;
By Thine own cords of love, so sweetly wound
Around me, closely I to Thee am bound.
3
To Thee, Thou Bleeding Lamb,
    I all things owe,
  All that I have and am,
    And all I know;
All that I have is now no longer mine,
And I am not my own: Lord, I am Thine.
4
How can I, Lord, withhold
    Life’s brightest hour
  From Thee; or gathered gold,
    Or any power?
Why should I keep one precious thing from Thee,
When Thou hast given Thine own dear Self for me?
5
I pray Thee, Savior, keep
    Me in Thy love,
  Until the world Thou sweep
    And me remove
To that fair realm, where, sin and sorrow o’er,
Thou and Thine own are one for evermore.

I lay awake 2:30 am. This hymn came to mind. I am so thankful for desiring Him more each day.

This hymn reminded me how much it cost Him to pay for my sin, redemption and sanctification. And that it is the right for me to give myself and mine ALL! to Him.
