Give Me Thy Heart (Canaan Melodies #52)
A powerful hymn, with the words of the LORD compelling us to give him our hearts! Each verse has a different member of the Trinity addressing His child - an unusual and lovely feature. Written by EE Hewitt, this song will draw you into the presence of God.
1 “Give me thy heart” says the Father above
No gift so precious to him as our love
Softly He whispers wherever thou art
“Gratefully trust me, and give me thy heart”
Refrain:
“Give me thy heart, give me thy heart:
Hear the soft whisper wherever thou art
From this dark world he would draw thee apart
Speaking so tenderly, “Give me thy heart”
2 “Give me thy heart” says the Saviour of Men
Calling in mercy again and again
“Turn now from sin, and from evil depart
Have I not died for thee? give me thy heart”
3 “Give me thy heart” says the Spirit divine
“All that thou has, to my keeping resign
Grace more abounding is mine to impart
Make full surrender and give me thy heart”
