Poem by Charles Wesley

* * *

Take my heart, O Father! take it;
Make and keep it all Thine own;
Let Thy Spirit melt and break it—
This proud heart of sin and stone.

Father, make me pure and lowly,
Fond of peace and far from strife;
Turning from the paths unholy
Of this vain and sinful life.

Ever let Thy grace surround me,
Strengthen me with power divine,
Till Thy cords of love have bound me;
Make me to be wholly Thine.

May the blood of Jesus heal me
And my sins be all forgiv’n;
Holy Spirit, take and seal me,
Guide me in the path of Heav’n.

1. Eternal Spir­it, Come
2. Jesus, We Look to Thee
3. Stupendous Love of God Most High!
4. Come, Ye Weary Sinners, Come
5. Ye Thirsty for God, To Jesus Give Ear
