Take my life

Verse 1 Take my mornings, take my evenings Take the rhythm of my days Take the plans I hold so tightly Turn them into living praise In the ordinary moments In the work and in the wait Teach me how to live before You With a heart surrendered still Chorus Take my life and let it be Consecrated, Lord, to Thee Take my moments and my days Let them flow in endless praise Verse 2 Take my hands in every labor Take my feet where mercy leads Take my voice in every answer Make it kind in word and deed When I speak and when I listen When I stay and when I go Let the Christ the world encounters Be the Christ I claim to know Chorus Take my life and let it be Consecrated, Lord, to Thee Take my moments and my days Let them flow in endless praise Verse 3 Take my thinking and my striving Take my dreams and all my plans Take the need to hold the future Loosen it from anxious hands Take my money and my power Take the pride I hide so well Be the King within my wanting Teach my restless heart to dwell Chorus Take my life and let it be Consecrated, Lord, to Thee Take my moments and my days Let them flow in endless praise Verse 4 Take my love and make it faithful Take myself, I’m not my own Take the hidden parts and shadows Claim them fully for Your throne Not in pieces, not in pretense Not in words alone I sing Take me wholly, Lord, and make me Yours in everything Chorus 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 life and let it be Consecrated, Lord, to Thee
