Lyrics
living for Jesus a life that is true
striving to please him in all that I do yielding allegiance gladhearted and free
this is the pathway of blessings for me
oh Jesus lord and saviour
i give myself to thee
for thou in thy atonement didst give thyself for me
I own no other master my heart shall be thy throne
my life I give henceforth to live
oh Christ for thee alone
living for Jesus who died in my place
bearing on calv'ry my sin and disgrace
such love constrains me to answer His call
follow His leading and give Him my all
oh Jesus Lord and saviour I give myself to thee
for thou in thy atonement didst give thyself for me
I own no other master my heart shall be thy throne
my life I give henceforth to live
oh Christ for thee alone
living for Jesus wherever I am
doing each duty in His holy name
willing to suffer affliction and loss
deeming each trial a part of my cross
oh Jesus Lord and Saviour I give myself to thee
for thou in thy atonement didst give thyself for me
I own no other Master my heart shall be thy throne
my life I give henceforth to live
oh Christ for thee alone
living for Jesus through earth's little while
my dearest treasure the light of His smile
seeking the lost ones He died to redeem
bringing the weary to find rest in Him
oh Jesus Lord and Saviour I give myself to thee
for thou in thy atonement didst give thyself for me
I own no other Master my heart shall be thy throne
my life I give henceforth to live
oh Christ for thee alone
