Give Me Thine Heart!

lyricist: Eden Latta, 1887
Composer: Alonzo Abbey

Wherever we may go

by night or day

A lov­ing voice with­in doth gent­ly say:

My son

from ev­ery way of sin de­part;

Be Sa­tan’s slave no more

give Me thy heart!

Give Me thy heart

give me thy heart;

O wea­ry

wan­der­ing child

give Me thy heart.

Slight not that voice so kind

but glad­ly hear

And choose the Lord to­day

while He is near;

He will His par­don­ing love to thee im­part

Oh

hear Him call­ing still

Give Me thy heart!

We may have chos­en long from Him to roam

Yet He will wel­come us

if we but come;

Oh

may we not de­lay

but quick­ly start—

While Je­sus say­eth still

Give Me thy heart!
