Take my life and let it be

I’m part of an online worship songwriting group and each month we are set a new challenge.  This is my take on the theme of “commitment songs”.  It draws on the old hymn “take my life and let it be”, and a prayer from the licensing service of a new vicar

Take my life and let it be
Rooted firmly like a tree
Planted by the waters of your love
Take my mind and let it soar
Like an eagle, searching for
All the truth that’s hidden in your love

Every moment, every day
Everything I have, I pray
Take my life and fill it with your love

Take my lips and let my words
Sing your praises like the birds
Every breath a story of your love
Take my heart and let it blaze
Like a fire, filled with praise
For your burning, never failing love
