“Give Me thy heart,”
says the Father above—
No gift so precious
to Him as our love;
Softly He whispers
wherever thou art,
“Gratefully trust Me
and give Me thy heart.”
“Give Me thy heart,
give me thy heart”—
Hear the soft whisper,
wherever thou art;
From this dark world
He would draw thee apart,
Speaking so tenderly,
“Give Me thy heart.”
“Give Me thy heart,”
says the Savior of men,
Calling in mercy
again and again;
“Trust in Me only,
I’ll never depart—
Have I not died for thee?
Give Me thy heart.”
“Give Me thy heart,
give me thy heart”—
Hear the soft whisper,
wherever thou art;
From this dark world
He would draw thee apart,
Speaking so tenderly,
“Give Me thy heart.”
“Give Me thy heart,”
says the Spirit divine;
“All that thou hast
to My keeping resign;
Grace more abounding
is Mine to impart—
Make full surrender
and give Me thy heart.”
“Give Me thy heart,
give me thy heart”—
Hear the soft whisper,
wherever thou art;
From this dark world
He would draw thee apart,
Speaking so tenderly,
“Give Me thy heart.”
