NOT MY OWN.

By Robert Hare

BY ROBERT HARE.
"Ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body." 1 Cor. 6:20.
Not my own, forever ransomed, Purchased by the sinner's Friend; Voice, and tongue, and mind, for Jesus All their willing powers must spend.
All for Jesus, soul and body, Life and love in him to find; Giving still a faithful service, Pure in heart with willing mind.
All for Jesus, who, in pity Left the shining courts above, That his hand might lead the wand'rer Back into the fold of love.
All I owe my blessed Saviour; His the conquest and the strife; His the loving accents calling, Promise of eternal life.
Not my own but all for Jesus, Lord, I lay me at thy feet; Let thy spirit, blessed Saviour, Make the gift an off'ring meet.
Healdsburg, Cal.
