Take Thou My

 

 

Take Thou my hands and use them as Thy own;

Thou knowest well their optimum usage;

And I might use them almost like a clown!

Abuse/ misuse them fore I reach old-age.

 

Take Thou my eyes and use them as Thy own,

So that they see just things theyre meant to see;

For I might see things, on which Thou couldst frown,

Or fail to see the things I must freely.

 

Take Thou my mind and use it as Thy own,

My ears and nose and tongue and skin as well;

My thoughts and actions should not let me down;

Let not my soul forever burn in Hell.

 

Take Thou my soul and use it as Thy own,

Before I sin and Thou must me disown!
