All, all for Thee!
Dear Saviour, may this watchword
Be Thine own key-note
for my life this year;
So sweetly harmonizing
thought and action,
That none who listen may a discord hear!
All, all for Thee!
Oh, take me now entirely!
Retune each note
with Thine own gentle hand;
I give myself afresh into Thy keeping,
To do or suffer, as Thou shalt command.
I give my heart—
I long to love Thee better
Than ever I have done in years before;
That all I do may be a “joy, and duty”;
Lord Jesus, grant it:
may I love Thee more!
I give my will—
O Master, do receive it;
It must rebel in any care but Thine:
I cannot keep it, it is so self-pleasing:
What rest to think it is no longer mine!
O Master, by Thine own
most Holy Spirit,
Send heavenly music
o’er the earth through me,
So true, so beautiful, so soul-refreshing,
That those who hear it
may learn more of Thee!
