JESUS, Master, Whose I am, Purchased Thine alone to be, By Thy blood, O spotless Lamb, Shed so willingly for me, Let my heart be all Thine own, Let me live to Thee alone.
Other lords have long held sway; Now, Thy name alone to bear, Thy dear voice alone obey, Is my daily, hourly prayer: Whom have I in Heaven but Thee? Nothing else my joy can be.
Jesus, Master, Whom I serve, Though so feebly and so ill, Strengthen hand and heart and nerve All Thy bidding to fulfil; Open Thou mine eyes to see All the work Thou hast for me.
Jesus, Master, wilt Thou use One who owes Thee more than all? As Thou wilt! I would not choose; Only let me hear Thy call. Jesus, let me always be, In Thy service, glad and free.
Frances Ridley Havergal, 1836-79
