Song Lyrics for Today's Worship
“Take My Life and Let It Be”
1. Take my life and let it be
consecrated, Lord, to thee.
Take my moments and my days;
let them flow in endless praise,
let them flow in endless praise.
2. わが足速め用いませ主よ
(Waga Ashi Hayame Mochii Mase Shuyo)
わが歌声は主をほめたたえん
(Waga Utagoe Wa Shuwo Hometataen)
主をほめたたえん
(Syuwo Hometataen)
3. Take my silver and my gold;
not a mite would I withhold.
Take my intellect and use
every power as thou shalt choose,
every power as thou shalt choose.
4. わが思いをば主のものとなし
(Waga Omoi Woba Shuno Monoto Nashi)
わが心をば主の宮となせ
(Waga Kokorowoba Shuno Miya To Nase)
主の宮となせ
(Shuno Miya To Nase)
5. Take my love; my Lord, I pour
at thy feet its treasure store.
Take myself, and I will be
ever, only, all for thee,
ever, only, all for thee.

“When I Survey the Wondrous Cross”
1. When I survey the wondrous cross
on which the Prince of glory died,
my richest gain I count but loss,
and pour contempt on all my pride.
2. Were the whole realm of nature mine,
that were a present far too small.
Love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all.

“Blest Are They”
1. Blest are they, the poor in spirit;
theirs is the kingdom of God.
Blest are they, full of sorrow,
they shall be consoled
Refrain: Rejoice and be glad!
Blessed are you; holy are you!
Rejoice and be glad!
Yours is the Kingdom of God!
2. Blest are they, who show mercy,
mercy shall be theirs.
Blest are they, the pure of heart,
they shall see God. (Refrain)
3. Blest are you who suffer hate
all because of me.
Rejoice and be glad, yours is the kingdom,
shine for all to see. (Refrain x2)
