Consecration (Howard)

lyricist: Mildred Howard, 1907
Composer: Andrew Byers

Since Je­sus gave His life for me

Should I not give Him mine?

I’m con­se­crat­ed

Lord

to Thee;

I shall be whol­ly Thine.

My life

O Lord

I give to Thee

My tal­ents

time and all;

I’ll serve Thee

Lord

Thine own to be

I’ll hear Thy faint­est call.

I care not where my Lord di­rects

His pur­pose I’ll ful­fill;

I know He ev­ery one pro­tects

Who does His ho­ly will.

Tho’ He may call across the sea

With Je­sus I will go

And tell the lost of love so free

Till all His pow­er may know.

My home and friends are dear to me

Yet He is dear­er still;

In my af­fect­ions first He’ll be

And first His right­eous will.

My all

O Lord

to Thee I’ll give

Accept it as Thine own;

For Thee

dear Lord

I’ll ev­er live

My heart shall be Thy throne.
