155. My God, Accept My Heart This Day

1 my God, accept my heart this day,
And make it always Thine,
That I from Thee no more may stray,
No more from Thee decline.

2 Before the Cross of Him who died,
Behold I prostrate fall;
Let ev'ry sin be crucified,
And Christ be all in all!

3 Anoint me with Thy heavenly grace,
And seal me for Thine own,
That I may see Thy glorious face,
And worship near Thy throne!

4 May the dear blood, once shed for me,
My blest atonement prove,
That I from first to last may be
The purchase of Thy love!

5 Let ev'ry thought, and work, and word,
To Thee be ever given:
Then life shall be Thy service, Lord,
And death the gate to heaven!
