Lyrics
My Lord, an off'ring do I bring;
My heart I give to Thee.
I gladly give this heart of mine,
Which Thou dost ask of me.
Thou sayest, "Child, give me your heart!"
O what a sweet request!
It shows the way that we must take
To life and peace and rest.
O now, my Saviour, do Thou take
My heart and make it Thine;
I'll follow Thee, a servant true,
Within Thy fold divine.
Enclothed in all Thy righteousness
And innocence I'd be,
That I might stand before my God,
From sin made pure and free.
O, God, unite my heart with Thee
And with Thy Spirit bright;
And for the sake of Thine own Son
Inflame my heart with light!
Now grant Thy godly light to me;
Thy holy love instill!
May envy, hate, and darkness flee;
My heart with courage fill!
O, give my faith its steadfastness
In Christ, God's Son, alway,
That fearless I His name confess,
Whatever foes may say!
Grant that in hope I firm may be,
Humbly and patiently,
That when all hath forsaken me
Thy grace my comfort be.
Lord, let my heart Thy temple be
The while I sojourn here,
And then, through all eternity,
Make it Thy dwelling there.
I give my heart alone to Thee;
Use it for Thy design!
This vain world's I would never be,
Dear Lord, but wholly Thine.
Depart vain world, with all your sin!
From bondage I am free.
A humble off'ring do I bring;
My heart I give to Thee!
My heart I give to Thee.
I gladly give this heart of mine,
Which Thou dost ask of me.
Thou sayest, "Child, give me your heart!"
O what a sweet request!
It shows the way that we must take
To life and peace and rest.
O now, my Saviour, do Thou take
My heart and make it Thine;
I'll follow Thee, a servant true,
Within Thy fold divine.
Enclothed in all Thy righteousness
And innocence I'd be,
That I might stand before my God,
From sin made pure and free.
O, God, unite my heart with Thee
And with Thy Spirit bright;
And for the sake of Thine own Son
Inflame my heart with light!
Now grant Thy godly light to me;
Thy holy love instill!
May envy, hate, and darkness flee;
My heart with courage fill!
O, give my faith its steadfastness
In Christ, God's Son, alway,
That fearless I His name confess,
Whatever foes may say!
Grant that in hope I firm may be,
Humbly and patiently,
That when all hath forsaken me
Thy grace my comfort be.
Lord, let my heart Thy temple be
The while I sojourn here,
And then, through all eternity,
Make it Thy dwelling there.
I give my heart alone to Thee;
Use it for Thy design!
This vain world's I would never be,
Dear Lord, but wholly Thine.
Depart vain world, with all your sin!
From bondage I am free.
A humble off'ring do I bring;
My heart I give to Thee!
