Now at last I end this strife, To my God I give my life Wholly, with a steadfast mind; Sin I will not hearken more, World, I turn from thee, 'tis o'er; Not a look I'll cast behind. Hath my heart been wavering long, Have I dallied oft with wrong, Now at last I firmly say,-- All my will to this I give, Only to my God to live, And to serve Him night and day. Lord, I offer at Thy feet All I have most dear and sweet, Lo! I keep no secret hoard; Try my heart, and lurks there aught False within its inmost thought, Take it hence this moment, Lord! I will shun no toil or wo, Where Thou leadest I will go, Be my pathway plain or rough; If but every hour may be Spent in work that pleases Thee, Ah, dear Lord, it is enough! Thee I make my choice alone, Make for ever, Lord, Thine own All my powers of soul and mind; Here I give myself away, Let the cov'nant stand for aye That my hand to-day hath sign'd. | Chorale Book for England, The #131 (1863) |
