|
| 1. | Living for Jesus a life that is true, |
| | Striving to please Him in all that I do; |
| | Yielding allegiance, glad-hearted and free, |
| | This is the pathway of blessing for me. |
| | O Jesus, Lord and Savior, |
| | I give myself to Thee, |
| | For Thou, in Thy redemption, |
| | Didst give Thyself for me; |
| | I own no other Master, |
| | My heart shall Thy throne, |
| | My life I give, henceforth to live, |
| | O Christ, for Thee alone. |
| 2. | 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. |
| 3. | 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. |
| 4. | 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. |
