Give of Your Best to the Master

lyricist: Howard Grose, 1901
Composer: Charlotte Barnard, 1864

Give of your best to the Mas­ter;

Give of the strength of your youth.

Throw your soul’s fresh

glow­ing ar­dor

Into the bat­tle for truth.

Jesus has set the ex­am­ple

Dauntless was He

young and brave.

Give Him your loy­al de­vo­tion;

Give Him the best that you have.

Give of your best to the Mas­ter;

Give of the strength of your youth.

Clad in sal­va­tion’s full ar­mor

Join in the bat­tle for truth.

Give of your best to the Mas­ter;

Give Him first place in your heart.

Give Him first place in your serv­ice;

Consecrate ev­ery part.

Give

and to you will be giv­en;

God His be­loved Son gave.

Gratefully seek­ing to serve Him

Give Him the best that you have.

Give of your best to the Mas­ter;

Naught else is wor­thy His love.

He gave Him­self for your ran­som

Gave up His glo­ry above.

Laid down His life with­out mur­mur

You from sin’s ru­in to save.

Give Him your heart’s ad­or­ation;

Give Him the best that you have.
