“To You my God I now surrender
All to You my Lord I give
That one day I’ll see Your splendour
Let me in Your Light now live
I fear so much my Lord’s rejection
Shame prevents my entry in
Nought should hinder my election
Foolish idols wayward sin
To You I lay upon the altar
All that robs me of life’s crown
Not to make this child to falter
Thus I lay my Isaac down
How it brings sweet satisfaction
Greeting You upon my knees
Serving You in thought and action
You and Yours I seek to please
Daily when about my duty
Show this child Lord where to go
Share with me Your promised booty
When we’ve beat the common foe
Now! I seek no more to tumble
So I humbly kneel in prayer
Even though I may yet stumble
Give me faith to know You’re there
Lord lift me up in hands so tender
Show this child how much You care
All to You I now surrender
All my life to You I bear
Take this child great God of Fire
Keep me safe beneath Your wing
Grant Your servant one desire
Eternal praise my Lord to sing”
