I love, I love my Master,
I will not go out free,
For He is my Redeemer;
He paid the price for me.
I would not leave His service,
It is so sweet and blest;
And in the weariest moments
He gives the truest rest.
I will not go out free,
For He is my Redeemer;
He paid the price for me.
I would not leave His service,
It is so sweet and blest;
And in the weariest moments
He gives the truest rest.

My Master shed His life-blood
My vassal life to win,
And save me from the bondage
Of tyrant self and sin.
He chose me for His service,
And gave me power to choose
That blessed, perfect freedom,
Which I shall never lose.
My vassal life to win,

Of tyrant self and sin.

I would not halve my service,
His only it must be!
His only, who so loved me,
And gave Himself for me.
Rejoicing and adoring,
Henceforth my song shall be,
I love, I love my Master,
I will not go out free.
His only it must be!
His only, who so loved me,
And gave Himself for me.
Rejoicing and adoring,
Henceforth my song shall be,
I love, I love my Master,
I will not go out free.

The sister that penned this hymn only lived to be 43. Yet she wrote so many sweet intimate hymns of her experience like this one. I wonder how many have experienced the Lord as master like this. She is certainly a willing to be a slave and servant. But she sees she is free in this service no longer in bondage from sin. She also realizes that she does this by choice. She writes in another of her hymns about being a loving slave to her master that loves her. The first verse of another of her hymns is below.
Master, how shall I bless Thy name
For love so great to me,
For sweet enablings of Thy grace,
So sov’reign, yet so free,
That taught me to obey Thy word,
And cast my care on Thee?

A vassal:
a person who was given part of a Lord's land and who pledged himself to that Lord
a person under the protection of a feudal Lord to whom he has vowed homage (respect) and fealty (loyalty, fidelity, pledge).
In other words in return for our giving ourselves to Him we receive a land and not only a land but a share of the throne.

Crystallization-study of Exodus. God wants those that will serve Him in spirit. Whose purpose are we serving?
Now therefore fear Jehovah, and serve Him in sincerity and faithfulness, and put away the Gods whom your fathers served across the River and in Egypt and serve Jehovah.
Our destiny is to hold a feast unto God! Let us enjoy God!
it is so sweet and blest.

'I love, I love my Master,
He paid the price for me. . . '
'And the life I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. '
