<p>I lift my heart to Thee, Savior divine;<br>
For Thou art all to me, and I am Thine;<br>
Is there on earth a closer bond than this,<br>
That my Belov&egrave;d&#8217;s mine, and I am His?</p>
<p>Thine am I by all ties; but chiefly Thine,<br>
That through Thy sacrifice Thou, Lord, art mine.<br>
By thine own cords of love, so sweetly wound,<br>
Around me, I to Thee am closely bound.</p>
<p>To Thee, Thou bleeding Lamb, I all things owe&#8212;<br>
All that I have, and am, and all I know.<br>
All that I have is now no longer mine,<br>
And I am not mine own; Lord, I am Thine.</p>
<p>How can I, Lord, withhold life&#8217;s brightest hour<br>
From Thee; or gathered gold, or any power?<br>
Why should I keep one precious thing from Thee;<br>
When Thou hast giv&#8217;n Thine own dear self for me?</p>
<p>I pray Thee, Savior, keep me in Thy love,<br>
Until death&#8217;s holy sleep shall me remove<br>
To that fair realm where, sin and sorrow o&#8217;er,<br>
Thou and Thine own are one forevermore.</p>
