Take Thou Our Minds, Dear Lord

Take Thou our minds

dear Lord

We hum­bly pray

Give us the mind of Christ

Each pass­ing day;

Teach us to know the truth

That sets us free;

Grant us in all our thoughts

To hon­or Thee.

Take Thou our hearts

O Christ—

They are Thine own;

Come Thou with­in our souls

And claim Thy throne;

Help us to shed abroad

Thy death­less love;

Use us to make the earth

Like Heav­en above.

Take Thou our wills

Most High!

Hold Thou full sway;

Have in our in­most souls

Thy per­fect way;

Guard Thou each sac­red hour

From self­ish ease;

Guide Thou our or­dered lives

As Thou dost please.

Take Thou our­selves

O Lord

Heart

mind

and will;

Through our sur­ren­dered souls

Thy plans ful­fill.

We yield our­selves to Thee—

Time

tal­ents

all;

We hear

and hence­forth heed

Thy sov­er­eign call.
