From my heart comes a melody Of the One who gave His life for me. How can I turn away from Thee; Lord, I have seen Thy changeless love for me. Enjoyment so full! Life’s reality! That’s what You’re to me: Lord, You have won my heart! Take my heart, take my whole life too; Lord, I can’t help giving myself to You.

From the day that I first met You. How could I help falling in love with You? Emptiness turned life’s pleasures blue; No earthly love ever could see me through. ’Til I turned one day Opened up my heart, Let Your love flow in And fill my deepest part. Now I know, Lord, You’re one with me; And I can’t help giving myself to Thee. Lord, I can’t help giving myself to Thee.
Elvis Presley sang a love song to this tune. Take my heart. Take my whole life too is probably inspired by that song. God’s love is what draws our heart to Him and brings us to this consecration. God loves to see our love. He is after our whole heart. In my experience He has gained my heart little by little through good times and bad. Lord take my whole life.
