- I yield to Thee, Savior, forsaking
my all,
From sinful things now I will part;
To Thee I surrender, for mercy I call,
Come, take the first place in my heart.
- Refrain:
Oh, take the first place in my heart,
Oh, take the first place in my heart;
I open the door, come in, I implore;
Lord, take the first place in my heart.
- Oh, come, gentle Spirit, don’t leave me, I pray,
From Thee I will never depart;
I come to Thee now, for I cannot delay,
Lord, take the first place in my heart.
- I cannot be lost, Lord, for Thee I will live,
Forgiveness, O Savior, impart;
If I will confess, Thou wilt freely forgive,
And take the first place in my heart.
- The joybells of heaven will ring in my soul,
My Savior, Redeemer, Thou art;
To Thee I surrender, wilt Thou make me whole?
Take now the first place in my heart.
