"Take My Life"

Take my life and let it be consecrated, Lord, for Thee;
Take my moments and my days, let them flow in ceaseless 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 You choose.

Here am I, all of me
Take my life it's all for thee.

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 Your feet it's treasure store
Take myself and I shall be, only, all for Thee.

-Chris Tomlin's "Take my life (Here am I)"

Isn't this a great song? I will tell you what, it is such a delight to surrender all to such a God as our God! His mercy and grace are great!

May you surrender all your time, body, words, possessions, mind, will, loves and whole self to the Great God and our Savior Jesus Christ! God bless you guys!

  1. Oh Grace! You have no Idea what this means to me! I wrote about this exact song in my prayer journal the same day you wrote this. Asking to God to "Take my life and let it be". I absolutely love that you were thinking about the same song on the same day, and saying the same prayer I was! I love it! I sang this song as prayer. :) I love how God does that. :) I love you!
