378. Savior, While My Heart Is Tender

1 Savior, while my heart is tender,
I would yield that heart to Thee;
All my pow'rs to Thee surrender,
Thine and only Thine to be.

2 Take me now, Lord Jesus, take me,
Let my youthful heart be Thine:
Thy devoted servant make me,
Fill my soul with love divine.

3 Send me, Lord, where Thou wilt send me,
Only do Thou guide my way;
May Thy grace thro' life attend me,
Gladly then shall I obey.

4 Thine I am, O Lord, forever,
To Thy service set apart;
Suffer me to leave Thee never;
Seal Thine image on my heart.

5 Let me do Thy will or bear it,
I would know no will but Thine;
Should'st Thou take my life, or spare it,
I that life to Thee resign.
