- 1Let Him to whom we now belong
- His sovereign right assert,
- And take up every thankful song,
- And every loving heart.
- 2He justly claims us for His own,
- Who bought us with a price;
- The Christian lives to Christ alone,
- To Christ alone he dies.
- 3Jesus, Thine own at last receive,
- Fulfil our hearts' desire,
- And let us to Thy glory live,
- And in Thy cause expire.
- 4Our souls and bodies we resign;
- With joy we render Thee
- Our all, no longer ours, but Thine
- To all eternity.
