Lord, to Thee
January 3, 2025
Joshua 3:5 Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you.
I must expect and prepare to pass ways I have not passed before. But in these paths of life, I may walk in bold cheerfulness - whether called to suffer pain, persecution, or poverty, I am following the Author and Finisher of my faith. (Hebrews 12:2) Faith will see the prints of the Redeemer's feet, which I will follow.
John 14:3 If I am going away to prepare a place for you, I will come back again and welcome you into my presence so that you may be where I am.
Take my life and let it be
consecrated, Lord, to thee.
Take my moments and my days;
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.
Take my voice and let me sing
always, only, for my King.
Take my lips and let them be
filled with messages from thee.
Take my silver and my gold;
not a mite would I withhold.
Take my intellect and use
every power 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.
Take my love; my Lord, I pour
at thy feet its treasure store.
Take myself, and I will be
ever, only, all for thee.
