In Worship & Music

Inspired by: Exodus 21:5-6

Verse 1
My glorious Victor, Prince Divine,
Clasp these surrendered hands in Thine;
At length my will is all Thine own,
Glad vassal of a Savior’s throne,
Glad vassal of a Savior’s throne.

Verse 2
My Master lead me to Thy door,
And pierce this willing ear once more;
Thy bonds are freedom, let me stay
With Thee to toil, endure, obey,
With Thee to toil, endure, obey.

Chorus
I am Your servant forever, and here I will remain.
I am Your servant forever; freely I come, and freely stay.

Verse 3
Yes, ear and hand, and thought and will,
Use all in Thy dear slav’ry still!
Self’s weary liberties I cast
Beneath Thy feet, there keep them fast;
Beneath Thy feet, there keep them fast.

Verse 4
Tread them still down, and then I know,
These hands shall with Thy gifts o’erflow,
And piercéd ears shall hear the tone
Which tells me Thou and I are one,
Which tells me Thou and I are one.
