Would I My Blessed Lord Obey
Would I my blessed Lord obey,
His sacrifice, in part, repay,
Myself, for Him, I must deny,
Let me not think the price too high.
Refrain:
The blood-stain’d way, His footprints show,
Is full of pain and care, I know;
Tho’ many tears may dim my eye,
O let me not my Lord deny.
My blessed Lord to glorify,
For Him to live, for Him to die;
Let me not think the price too high,
The price could not be too high.
Let me take up my heavy cross,
To follow Him and count no loss,
My all to give and sanctify,
Let me not think the price too high. [Refrain]
O let me glad and grateful be,
That He entrusts a work to me,
My talents use and multiply,
Let me not think the price too high. [Refrain]
