399 Take My Life, and Let it Be

Take My Life, and Let it Be
Note: this song starts on third of the first chord (F# capoed, A uncapoed).
It isn’t hard to find the pitch, though.

Capo 3

D                 A7     A  D
Take my life, and let it be consecrated,
         A     D               A7     A
Lord, to thee. Take my moments and my days;
D                A         D
let them flow in ceaseless praise.
A7                 F#m      D
Take my hands, and let them move
    A              D
    at the impulse of thy love.
                  A7       A  D
Take my feet, and let them be swift
              A7      D
    and beautiful for thee.

Words: Frances R. Havergal, 1873 (Rom. 12:1)
