Lord in the Strength of Grace

182 Lord in the Strength of Grace

1 Lord, in the strength of grace,
   With a glad heart and free,
   Myself, my residue of days,
   I consecrate to thee.

2 Thy ransomed servant, I
   Restore to Thee Thy own;
   And, from this moment, live or die
   To serve my God alone.
                         Charles Wesley
                         The Methodist Hymnal 1964 edition

Amazingly, that's all the verses there are! Not even Hymnary.org lists any additional ones. It also is one of his less popular hymns, only occurring in around 150 hymnals.
