Lyrics

Verse 1
God of all-redeeming grace,
By thy pard’ning love compell’d
Up to thee our souls we raise, (Ps. 25:1)
Up to thee our bodies yield. (Rom. 6:13, Rom. 12:1)

Verse 2
Thou our sacrifice receive, (Rom. 12:1)
Acceptable thro’ thy Son, (Eph. 1:6)
While to thee alone we live,
While we die to thee alone. (Rom. 14:8)

Verse 3
Just it is, and good, and right
That we should be wholly thine,
In thy only will delight, (Ps. 40:8)
In thy blessed service join.

Verse 4
O that every thought and word
Might proclaim how good thou art,
HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD (Ex. 28:36, Zech. 14:20)
Still be written on our heart. (Jer. 31:33, Heb. 8:10)
