You have longed for sweet peace
And for faith to increase
You have earnestly, so fervently
Oh, you really prayed
Oh, yes you have
But you cannot find rest
Nor be perfectly blessed
Until on the altar, until it's laid
Is your all on the altar
Of sacrifice, is it laid?
Your heart, does the spirit control?
Now, you can only
You can only be blessed
And have peace and sweet rest
After you have yielded unto the Lord
Your body and your soul, oh yes
Is your all on the altar of sacrifice, of sacrifice laid?
Your heart, does the spirit control?
You can only, only, only be blessed
And have peace and sweet rest
After you have yielded Him
Yielded Him your body and your soul, oh
That's all He wants
Everything, everything, everything
So, would you walk with the Lord
In the beauty of His light
Would you obey His word
Every day and every night
We will never know just what the Lord
Has to bestow upon His children
Until we give Him complete control
Give Him your, your heart
And your mind, your mind, your mind
Give Him your spirit, yeah, yeah, yeah
Your soul, yeah, yeah, yeah
Give Him your thoughts, give Him your ways
Your desire, yeah, yeah, yeah
Just give Him, give Him
Give Him your body and your soul
