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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
At Thy feet its treasure-store.
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee,
Ever, only, all for Thee.

A beautifully written hymn full of humility, sacrifice and trust in the Lord. I recall singing it as a young girl at the First United Methodist Church in downtown Gadsden and it brings back dear memories.

This hymn provides me the answer for how my life is to be lived, fully obedient to my Lord and Savior Jesus! I saved these words on my phone and sing this hymn daily!

Oh my, a powerful hymn to be sung always, because it draws me closer to the LORD. It is an assurance that when we allow our lives; heart, mind, body, abilities to be taken by the MASTER, then we are complete for worship.

I'm really drawn to Christ while singing this song of Consecration. I couldn't hold the tears before I finished singing Stanza 6, I'd love to sing it over and over again.

Oh Lord, I sing praises to You with all believers in this world. May our lives distinctly give the aroma of Your love and grace to a world in desperate need. JESUS, may my life sing to You and my surroundings with every word of this spirit-filled song.
