My God, Accept My Heart This Day

(EVAN )

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 every sin be crucified,
   Let Christ be All in All.
   
   
3. Let every thought, and work, and word,
   To thee be ever given;
   Then life shall be thy service, Lord,
   And death the gate of heaven.
   Matthew Bridges, 1800
