I: Let Thy blood in mercy poured

Let Thy blood in mercy poured, Let Thy gracious body broken, Be to me, O gracious Lord, Of Thy boundless love the token; Thou didst give Thyself for me, Now I give myself to Thee.

Thou didst die that I might live;-- Blessed Lord, Thou cam'st to save me; All that love of God could give, Jesus by His sorrows gave me;-- Thou didst give Thyself for me, Now I give myself to Thee.

By the thorns that crowned Thy brow, By the spear-wound and the nailing; By the pain and death, I now Claim, O Christ, Thy love unfailing; Thou didst give Thyself for me, Now I give myself to Thee.

Wilt Thou own the gift I bring? All my penitence I give Thee; Thou art my exalted King, Of Thy matchless love forgive me;-- Thou didst give Thyself for me, Now I give myself to Thee.
