English text

1  Take my life, and let it be Consecrated, Lord, to Thee. Take my moments and my days; 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. 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.

4  Take my silver and my gold; Not a mite will I withhold. Take my intellect, and use 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. 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.
