Only one life to offer— Jesus, my Lord and King; Only one tongue to praise Thee And of Thy mercy sing (forever); Only one heart's devotion— Saviour, O may it be Consecrated alone to Thy matchless glory, Yielded fully to Thee.
Only this hour is mine, Lord— May it be used for Thee; May ev'ry passing moment Count for eternity (my Saviour); Souls all about are dying, Dying in sin and shame; Help me bring them the message of Calv'ry's redemption In Thy glorious name.
Only one life to offer— Take it, dear Lord, I pray; Nothing from Thee withholding, Thy will I now obey (my Jesus); Thou who hast freely given Thine all in all for me, Claim this life for Thine own, to be used, my Saviour, Ev'ry moment for Thee.
