Notes About The Poem

The Lord gave me back my life but in such a way, it has been so much
better than I could ever have imagined.  I wanted to die before I came
to know Him, after I accepted Him as my Savior, all I wanted to do was
to bring other people to Him.  What a God!

 

My All For Thee

My All for Thee

What would You have for me today Lord
what would bring a smile to Your face?
Where would You have me to walk today Lord
is there someone I could lead to Your grace?

For this body belongs to You Master
redeemed just as much as my soul  
to be surrendered and available wholly for Your use
this truly is my goal.

Separated holy yielded
I pray  
let my life and my will grant
You absolute sway.

Father it is no lie and
certainly not just an act  
but I give my all to You my Lord
and nothing do I hold back.
