1.You have longed for sweet peace, and for
faith to increase,
And have earnestly, fervently prayed;
But you cannot have rest, or be perfectly
blest,
Until all on the altar is laid.
Is your all on the altar of sacrifice laid?
Your, heart, does the Spirit control?
You can only be blest and have peace
and sweet rest,
As you yeild Him your body and soul.
2.Would you walk with the Lord in the light
of His Word,
And have peace and contentment alway;
You must do His sweet will to be free from
all ill;
On the altar you all you must lay.
3.Oh, we never can know what the Lord will
bestow
Of the blessings for which we have prayed,
Till our body and soul He doth fully
control,
And our all on the altar is laid.
4.Who can tell all the love He will send from
above!
Oh, how happy our heart will be made!
Oh, what fellowship sweet we shall share at
His feet,
When our all on the altar is laid!
