Take My Life and Make Me Whole

Oh Thou kind and Gracious Father

Unto thy hands I commit my soul

As I study and live thy gospel

Take my life and make me whole

The road to which I travel is short

I may not prepare fully well

For mortality’s weakness cause trouble

Oh! Father let me at last with thee dwell

I have learned to call thee Father

That knowledge gives me faith to sustain

Let not that knowledge be stolen away

That I may forever with thee remain

Thy path I have chosen to follow willingly

The flesh makes me refuse thy will

Makes me weak to do thy work

But my spirit always cries “I will”

Father help me I pray

All my follies Lord forgive

Give me strength to walk thy way

To live with peace, love and happiness

The perils of this life I fear

Let them not enshroud my faith

Let thy Angels guide around me

And bring me to thee nearer

The things I do hurt my spirit

Let thy Holy Words fill my mind

Thy Atoning power heal me

And thy sword guard my spirit

Heavenly Father to thee I pray

Direct, lead and guide my steps

I don’t know of any other way

Father help me lest I die.

Jesus Christ the Son of God
