The Act of Consecration
Charles Wesley • English
Primary Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30
Verse 1
Let Him to whom we now belong His sovereign right assert, And take up every thankful song, And every loving heart.
Verse 2
He justly claims us for His own, Who bought us with a price; The Christian lives to Christ alone, To Christ alone he dies.
Verse 3
Jesus, Thine own at last receive, Fulfill our hearts' desire; And let us to Thy glory live, And in Thy cause expire.
Verse 4
Our souls and bodies we resign With joy we render Thee Our all, no longer ours, but Thine, To all eternity.
Verse 5
AMEN.
