Father, I give unto You,
this body You gave to me
my heart, my mind, my soul
so, I can learn to be . . .
A holy, living sacrifice,
to heed to Your good will
an open, willing vessel
to offer You my skill.
A light unto the world,
to shine in the darkness
a tiny grain of salt
to rid it of its harshness.
A voice in the wilderness,
to those who are lost
a witness to salvation
bringing glory to the cross.
A tiny mustard seed,
to spread the Gospel Word
a branch on the True Vine
to feed Your hungry herd.
Father, grant me Your mercies,
I need each and every one
if I am to be of Your service
and lead others to Your Son!

Romans 12:1
King James Version
“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God,
that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy,
acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.”
