I Surrender All

“Tudo Entregarei”

Letra: Judson Wheeler Van DeVenter, 1896. Pub­lished in The Young Peo­ple’s Hym­nal, ed­it­ed by James At­kins & Will­iam James Kirk­pat­rick, (1838–1921) (Nash­ville, Ten­nes­see: Pub­lish­ing House, Me­thod­ist Epis­co­pal Church, South, 1897), num­ber 7.

Música: “I Surrender All”Wilfield Scott Weeden, 1896. Wee­den pub­lished a num­ber of books of re­li­gious mu­sic, but this song must have been one of his fa­vo­rites: its ti­tle was on his tomb­stone. [ Arquivo Midi — Arquivo NoteWorthy Composer — Arquivo PDF ].

The song was written while I was conducting a meeting at East Palestine, Ohio, in the home of George Sebring (founder of the Sebring Campmeeting Bible Conference in Sebring, Ohio, and later developer of the town of Sebring, Florida). For some time, I had struggled between developing my talents in the field of art and going into full-time evangelistic work. At last the pivotal hour of my life came, and I surrendered all. A new day was ushered into my life. I became an evangelist and discovered down deep in my soul a talent hitherto unknown to me. God had hidden a song in my heart, and touching a tender chord, He caused me to sing.

A canção foi escrita enquanto eu estava conduzindo uma reunião na Palestina Oriental, Ohio, na casa de George Sebring (fundador da Sebring Campmeeting Bible Conference in Sebring, Ohio, e desenvolvedor posterior da cidade de Sebring, na Flórida). Por algum tempo, eu tinha lutado entre desenvolver meus talentos no campo da arte e entrar em trabalho evangelístico em tempo integral. Finalmente, chegou a hora crucial da minha vida, e eu entreguei tudo. Um novo dia foi introduzido na minha vida. Eu me tornei um evangelista e descobri no fundo de minha alma um talento até então desconhecido para mim. Deus tinha escondido uma canção em meu coração, e tocando um acorde terno, Ele me fez cantar.

I Surrender All

All to Jesus, I surrender;
All to Him I freely give;
I will ever love and trust Him,
In His presence daily live.

Refrain
I surrender all, I surrender all,
All to Thee, my blessèd Savior,
I surrender all.

All to Jesus I surrender;
Humbly at His feet I bow,
Worldly pleasures all forsaken;
Take me, Jesus, take me now.

Refrain
I surrender all, I surrender all,
All to Thee, my blessèd Savior,
I surrender all.

All to Jesus, I surrender;
Make me, Savior, wholly Thine;
Let me feel the Holy Spirit,
Truly know that Thou art mine.

Refrain
I surrender all, I surrender all,
All to Thee, my blessèd Savior,
I surrender all.

All to Jesus, I surrender;
Lord, I give myself to Thee;
Fill me with Thy love and power;
Let Thy blessing fall on me.

Refrain
I surrender all, I surrender all,
All to Thee, my blessèd Savior,
I surrender all.

All to Jesus I surrender;
Now I feel the sacred flame.
O the joy of full salvation!
Glory, glory, to His Name!

Refrain
I surrender all, I surrender all,
All to Thee, my blessèd Savior,
I surrender all.

Inocentes, Nós? Jesus me Transformou – Ginsburg

A palavra de Cristo habite em vós abundantemente, em toda a sabedoria, ensinando-vos e admoestando-vos uns aos outros, com salmos, hinos e cânticos espirituais, cantando ao Senhor com graça em vosso coração.

Colossenses 3:16
