Is Your All on the Altar?

You have longed for sweet peace

And for faith to in­crease

And have ear­nest­ly

fer­vent­ly prayed;

But you can­not have rest

Or be per­fect­ly blest

Until all on the al­tar is laid.

Is your all on the al­tar of sac­ri­fice laid?

Your heart does the Spir­it con­trol?

You can on­ly be blest

And have peace and sweet rest

As you yield Him your bo­dy and soul.

Would you walk with the Lord

In the light of His Word

And have peace and con­tent­ment al­way?

You must do His sweet will

To be free from all ill

On the al­tar your all you must lay.

O we nev­er can know

What the Lord will be­stow

Of the bless­ings for which we have prayed

Till our bo­dy and soul

He doth ful­ly con­trol

And our all on the al­tar is laid.

Who can tell all the love

He will send from ab­ove

And how hap­py our hearts will be made

Of the fel­low­ship sweet

We shall share at His feet

When our all on the al­tar is laid.
