- 1Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
- One in Three, and Three in One,
- As by the celestial host,
- Let thy will on earth be done;
- Praise by all to thee be given,
- Gracious Lord of earth and heaven.
- 2If so poor a worm as I
- May to thy great glory live,
- All my actions sanctify,
- All my words and thoughts receive.
- Claim me, for thy service claim
- All I have, and all I am.
- 3Take my soul and body's powers!
- Take my mem'ry, mind, and will,
- All my goods and all my hours,
- All I know and all I feel:
- All I think, or speak, or do;
- Take my heart; but make it new!
- 4Now, O God, thine own I am:
- Now I give thee back thine own;
- Freedom, friends, and health, and fame,
- Consecrate to thee alone:
- Thine I live, thrice happy I;
- Happier still if thine I die.
- 5Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
- One in Three, and Three in One,
- As by the celestial host,
- Let thy will on earth be done:
- Praise by all to thee be given,
- Glorious Lord of earth and heaven.
