Author: Howard B. Grose, 1851-1939 Hymnal: Total Praise #469 (2011) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with refrain Hymnal Title: Total Praise Lyrics: 1 Give of your best to the Master,
Give of the strength of your youth;
Throw your soul’s fresh, glowing ardor
Into the battle for truth.
Jesus has set the example -
Dauntless was He, young and brave;
Give Him your loyal devotion,
Give Him the best that you have.
Refrain:
Give of your best to the Master,
Give of the strength of your youth;
Clad in salvation’s full armor,
Join in the battle for truth.
2 Give of your best to the Master,
Give Him first place in your heart;
Give Him first place in your service,
Consecrate ev'ry part.
Give, and to you will be given-
God His beloved Son gave;
Gratefully seeking to serve Him,
Give Him the best that you have. [Refrain]
3 Give of your best to the Master,
Naught else is worthy His love;
He gave Himself for your ransom,
Gave up His glory above;
Laid down His life without murmur,
You from sin’s ruin to save;
Give Him your heart’s adoration,
Give Him the best that you have. [Refrain] Topics: Consecration; Gratitude; Jesus Christ His Love and Mercy; Jesus Christ Savior; Loyalty and Courage; Salvation; Truth; Worship and Adoration Scripture: 1 John 4:19 Languages: English Tune Title: BARNARD
