[Verse 1]
The soul that knows its hidden wound,
Is near the healing grace,
But he who walks in blindness still
Sinks deeper from Thy face.
Though ears may hear Thy holy Word,
The heart must open wide,
For truth that knocks at bolted doors
Will profit none inside.

[Chorus]
O Father, take my heart today,
And make it all Thine own,
A vessel holy unto Thee,
For Thee and Thee alone.

[Verse 2]
What man consecrates to his god,
No common use may claim,
So he who gives himself to Thee,
Must live to praise Thy name.
A womb devoted unto Thee,
Shall bear Thy vessels bright,
Though foes may rise on every side,
Thou shalt defend her right.

[Chorus]
O Father, take my heart today,
And make it all Thine own,
A vessel holy unto Thee,
For Thee and Thee alone.

[Verse 3]
Above all gifts men consecrate,
Thou lovest most the heart,
For when the heart belongs to Thee,
The whole life has its part.
A godly man, a faithful wife,
Shall raise a holy seed,
A generation born for Thee,
To walk where Thou dost lead.

[Chorus]
O Father, take my heart today,
And make it all Thine own,
A vessel holy unto Thee,
For Thee and Thee alone.

[Verse 4]
Though Earth may turn and kingdoms fall,
Thy holiness remains,
Thou still dost seek surrendered souls
To bear Thy holy pains.
The men of old whom Thou didst use
Were humble in men's eyes,
Yet through their yielded hearts, O Lord,
Thy covenants did arise.

[Chorus]
O Father, take my heart today,
And make it all Thine own,
A vessel holy unto Thee,
For Thee and Thee alone.

[Verse 5]
We have two lives before us set,
One low, and one on high,
One walks the dust of earthly days,
One shines beyond the sky.
Lord, make us true ambassadors,
Enduring to the end,
Till Heaven smiles upon our race,
And Thou dost call us friend.

[Final Chorus]
O Father, take our hearts today,
And make them all Thine own,
A people holy unto Thee,
For Thee and Thee alone.
