Words : H. Arnera
Music : Traditional Jewish melody adapted by H. Arnera
1. Take my soul, o Lord, take it to your heart,
And may your flame,
Burn in my soul.
May I live entirely for your service, Lord,
Be my sole master,
O divine king !
R. Source of life, love and peace,
To You I cry, night and day,
Guide my soul,
Be my support,
Fill my life,
Teach me, Lord, your way.
2. Guard me from all evil, save me when I call,
Guide me and lead me,
Be my only Lord.
When the darkness hides knowledge from my eyes,
Shine in my night,
Guiding star of truth.
3. See the dawn is breaking of another day,
See the sky golden
With the fire of life.
Jesus comes among us, no more need to fear.
Lift up your eyes,
See the risen Lord.
