Verse 1:
Take my life and let it be
consecrated, Lord, to thee.
Take my moments and my days;
let them flow in ceaseless praise,
let them flow in ceaseless praise.Verse 4:

not a mite would I withhold.
Take my intellect and use
every pow'r as thou shalt choose,

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,
ever, only, all for thee.

As I served you so must you do,
This new commandment I assign”.
