N.24 I Give My Hands

I give my hands to do your work
And, Jesus Lord, I give them willingly,
I give my feet to go your way
And every step I shall take cheerfully.

Chorus:
O the joy of the Lord is my strength, my strength,
O the joy of the Lord is my help, my help.
For the power of his Spirit is in my heart,
And the joy of the Lord is my strength.

I give my eyes to see the world
And every one in just the way you do.
I give my tongue to speak your words
To spread your name and freedom giving truth.

I give my mind in every way
So that each thought I have will come from you
I give my spirit to you, Lord,
And every day my prayer will spring anew.

I give my heart that you may love
In me your Father and the human race.
I give myself that you may grow
In me and make my life a song of praise.
