Put Thy kind arms round me, Feeble as I am; Thou art my Good Shepherd, I, Thy little lamb; Since Thou comest, Jesus, Now to be my Guest, I can trust Thee always, Lord, for all the rest.
Dearest Lord, I love Thee, With my whole, whole heart, Not for what Thou givest, But for what Thou art. Come, oh, come, sweet Saviour! Come to me, and stay, For I want Thee, Jesus, More than I can say.
Ah! What gift or present, Jesus, can I bring? I have nothing worthy Of my God and King; But Thou art my Shepherd, I, Thy little lamb; Take myself, dear Jesus, All I have and am.
6. Take my body, Jesus, Eyes, and ears, and tongue; Never let them, Jesus Help to do Thee wrong. Take my heart, and fill it Full of love for Thee; All I have I give Thee, Give Thyself to me.

Tr. Sister Jeanne Marie Traditional Melody
1. Jesus, Jesus, come to me, All my longing is for Thee, Of all friends the best Thou art, Make of me Thy counterpart.
2. Jesus, I live for Thee, Jesus, I die for Thee, I belong to Thee, For-e're in life and death.
1. My God, accept my heart this day, And make it always Thine, That I from Thee no more may stray, No more from Thee decline.
2. Before the cross of Him who dies, Behold I prostrate fall; Let ev'ry sin be crucified, Let Christ be all in all.
3. Anoint me with Thy heav'nly grace, Adopt me for Thine own, That I may see Thy glorious face And worship at Thy throne.
4. May the dear blood, once shed for me, My best atonement prove; That I from first to last may be The purchase of Thy love!
5. Let ev'ry thought, and work, and word, To Thee be ever giv'n Then life shall be Thy service, Lord, And death the gate of heav'n!
Jesus, my Lord! behold at length the time
Act of Contrition Bishop Chadwick Traditional Melody
1. Jesus, my Lord! Behold at length the time When I resolve to turn away from crime. Oh pardon me, Jesus: Thy mercy I implore; I will never more offend Thee;
2. Since my poor soul Thy precious Blood has cost Suffer it not forever to be lost. Oh pardon me, Jesus: Thy mercy I implore; I will never more offend Thee; no, never more.
3. Kneeling in tears, behold me at Thy feet Like Magdalene, forgiveness I entreat. Oh pardon me, Jesus: Thy mercy I implore; I will never more offend Thee;
