Living For Jesus, A Life That Is True,
Striving To Please Him In All That I Do;
Yielding Allegiance, Glad-Hearted And Free,
This Is The Pathway Of Blessing For Me.
O Jesus, Lord And Savior, I Give Myself To Thee,
For Thou, In Thy Atonement, Didst Give Thyself For Me;
I Own No Other Master, My Heart Shall Be Thy Throne;
My Life I Give, Henceforth To Live, O Christ, For Thee Alone.
Living For Jesus Who Died In My Place,
Bearing On Calvary My Sin And Disgrace;
Such Love Constrains Me To Answer His Call,
Follow His Leading And Give Him My All.
Living For Jesus, Wherever I Am,
Doing Each Duty In His Holy Name;
Willing To Suffer Affliction And Loss,
Deeming Each Trial A Part Of My Cross.
Living For Jesus Through Earth’s Little While,
My Dearest Treasure, The Light Of His Smile;
Seeking The Lost Ones He Died To Redeem,
Bringing The Weary To Find Rest In Him.
