Father, into Thy hands alone

Verse 1
Father, into thy hands alone
I have my all restor’d,
My all thy property I own,
The steward of the Lord.

Verse 2
Hereafter none can take away
My life or goods or fame,
Ready at thy demand to lay
Them down I always am.

Verse 3
Confiding in thy only love,
Thro’ him who died for me,
I wait thy faithfulness to prove,
And give back all to thee.

Verse 4
Take when thou wilt into thy hands,
And as thou wilt require;
Resume by the Sabean bands,
Or the devouring fire.

Verse 5
Determin’d all thy will t’ obey,
Thy blessings I restore;
Give, Lord, or take thy gifts away,
I praise thee evermore.
