Take and Receive

Words by St. Ignatius of Loyola
Music by Manoling Francisco, SJ

Take and receive, o Lord, my liberty,
Take all my will, my mind, my memory.
All things I hold, and all I own are Thine.
Thine was the gift, to Thee, I all resign.

Do Thou direct and govern all in sway,
Do what Thou wilt command, and I obey.
Only Thy grace, Thy love on me bestow,
These make me rich, all else will I forego.
(Repeat 2nd stanza)
