Music to my ears....

Did you ever turn on the radio and hear a song that fit your life a little too perfectly? Happens to me a lot... this is one of those songs, only I didn't hear it on the radio, and it doesn't fit my life at present. It does more than that... it fits exactly what I want my life to be... when I am on my deathbed, I want to look back and know that this song is a perfect description of my life... And it has been on my heart so much lately, that I really just wanted to share it with you. The complete lyrics are below... but there are several versions here that you can listen to or download...

Take my life and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.

Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in endless praise.

 Let them flow in endless praise.

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.

 

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.

Take my silver and my gold,
Not a mite would I withhold.
Take my intellect and use
Every pow’r as Thou shalt choose.

Every pow’r as Thou shalt choose.

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

.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.
