To You, dear Lord

1
To You, dear Lord,
I give myself afresh again
Unsparingly for Your desire,
Your economy.
2
O, fire from above,
Come and consume me thoroughly
That You may be my all,
My life, my everything.
3
It’s Your mercy and Your love
That I can give myself to You.
Since it’s in like manner
That You gave up Yourself for me.
4
Set Your throne in my heart
From now on to the very end.
It takes eternity to know its worth
To You, to me.

Even though the Lord has already bought us with the most precious blood, making us His possession, still He does not force us to give ourselves to Him. He still seeks for our consecration that allows Him to work Himself in us and set His throne in our hearts. I always like hymns like these, those that express such consecration to the Lord. While we sing, we also give ourselves to Him at the same time. Praise the Lord for the utterance in this hymn! It's His mercy and His love that we give ourselves to Him!

When I first heard the song, the Lord touched my heart. The words are so meaningful and full of eloquence.

To You, dear Lord

I give myself afresh again

Unsparinginly for Your desire,

Your economy

Set your throne in my heart

From now on to the very end

It takes eternity, to know its worth

To You, to me

Hallelujah! It’s Your mercy and Your love

If we heard this song the Lord encourages us to offer ourselves and serve Him for life.

There are less and less people who consecrate themselves absolutely... Cause consecration sometimes is like a shout that might not have an echo... God will not answer when you want.
