Ortonville. C. M.
Self-Dedication. (662)

Welcome, O Savior! to my heart;
Possess thine humble throne;
Bid every rival hence depart,
And claim me for thine own.

2 The world and Satan I forsake, --
To thee I all resign;
My longing heart, O Jesus! take,
And make it all divine.

3 Oh! may I never turn aside,
Nor from thy bosom flee;
Let nothing here my heart divide --
I give it all to thee.

Hugh Bourne, 1825.
