1
Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
2
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,
Swift and beautiful for Thee.
3
Take my voice, and let me sing
Always, only, for my King;
Take my lips, and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee,
Filled with messages from Thee.
4
Take my silver and my gold;
Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my intellect, and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose,
Every power as Thou shalt choose.
5
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,
It shall be Thy royal throne.
6
Take my love; my Lord, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure-store.
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee,
Ever, only, all for Thee.

Thank you Lord for always being ready to accept us back when we call on you. When sung in faith, this song has helped me surrender all to the will of God and find joy in serving Him by serving His people with all I have - my body, mind and money. To Him alone be glory!

I rejoice as I read posts from my brothers and sisters in Christ from around the world. I am blessed by your consecration to the Lord. I am so glad that you have been blessed by this song as you have given yourselves fully to our Lord Jesus. I have just sung this song slowly and quietly, trying to meditate on each word at a time when I have received news of a very positive Gospel advance. He is worthy of it all!

I am truly blessed. The words are so deep and so true. Lord I surrender all to you. Use me for Your glory. Amen.

One of my best songs it shows absolute commitment and dedication to the Lord. Every true Christian is called to serve God with his/her talent, time silver and gold.

God bless all those who believe in the words of the song.

I have been going through a trial recently, a real battle. I woke up today and thought I would do a Bible study to counter the enemy's lies. But I always like to start with worship which I did. As I wanted to wind down to my Bible, songs of consecration and rededication came to my heart, including this one. It broke me down and I offered my life to the LORD once again. It's like the LORD is saying "Just be fully yielded to Me."

So here I am LORD. My life, heart, mind and soul are Yours. I trust Your Word, and I trust You. ♥️ 💓

This song is really a blessing to me this morning. In my desire for consecration, I want God to take my moments and my days, and let them flow in ceaseless praise...

I want to love Him with all. Then, a line of the song came... Take my love, my Lord I pour...

And it's a great blessing seeing the whole lyrics and gracious comments.

I am immensely blessed by this hymn and all God's children, the beautiful souls who commented before me. Truly we are like-minded people. I cannot express, with words, how supernatural it is to know this hymn at a tender age and come to remember the same hymn at a very trying time as this in my present life. Somehow, in my moment of despair and discouragement, God brought it into my heart and I went further to look up/search for this song online, and here now, I noticed I'm not the only one who had this song come ringing in the mind during personal moment or circumstances. It's so supernatural to have this song come to most of us at a time like this — at a time like this when we need comfort, hope, strength, and with all of that, his assurance. Because rest assured, our moment of light affliction, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.

2 Cor 4:17-18

God bless you all saints!

I was Just making a consecration prayer to my Savior Jesus Christ when the first verse of this hymn ran through my mind. , so I looked it up. These verses should be the prayer of every believer!

Revised version:

1. Take my life, and let it be

Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;

Take my moments and my days,

Let them flow in ceaseless praise.

Chorus:

For me, You were mocked and crucified;

For me, willingly You bled and died.

Lord, my life and love I willingly outpour

And will serve You ever more.

2. Take my hands and feet, I pray,

For Thy work, to run Thy way.

Take my lips that I may sound

Word of truth to those around.

3. Take my silver and my gold;

Not a mite would I withhold;

Take my intellect, and use

Every power as Thou shalt choose.

4. Make my heart and will Thine own;

They belong to Thee alone.

Take my love; my Lord, I pour

At Thy feet its treasure-store.

5. Take me, Lord, till I've become

Ever joined to Thee as one.

Take myself, and I will be

Ever, only, all for Thee.
