470  CONSECRATION — Answering the Lord's Call

1. Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
  One in Three, and Three in One,
  As by the celestial host,
  Let Thy will on earth be done;
  Praise by all to Thee be giv'n,
  Glorious Lord of earth and heav'n!
2. Vilest of the sinful race,
  Lo, I answer to Thy call:
  Meanest vessel of Thy grace,
  Grace divinely free for all;
  Lo, I come to do Thy will,
  All Thy counsel to fulfil.
3. If so poor a worm as I,
  May to Thy great glory live,
  All my actions sanctify,
  All my words and thoughts receive;
  Claim me for Thy service, claim
  All I have, and all I am.
4. Take my soul and body's powers,
  Take my mem'ry, mind, and will;
  All my goods and all my hours,
  All I know, and all I feel;
  All I think, or speak, or do;
  Take my heart, but make it new.
5. Now, O God, Thine own I am,
  Now I give Thee back Thine own:
  Freedom, friends, and health, and fame,
  Consecrate to Thee alone;
  Thine I live, thrice happy I;
  Happier still when Thine I die.
