Take
Time to Be Holy
What does it mean to take time to be Holy? To me it means
to be in communication with God every minute of the day. To allow Him to guide
you into making good decisions and speaking the right words to others. To allow
Him to fight your battles for you by surrendering your worries to Him. To
commune with other saints and bless them with your prayers and your many
kindnesses. To receive God’s love and to share it with others.
Lyrics by William D. Longstaff, arranged by George C.
Stebbins
“Take time to be holy, speak often with thy Lord; Abide
in Him always, and feed on His Word. Make friends of God’s children; Help those
who are weak; Forgetting in nothing His blessing to seek.
Take time to be holy, the world rushes on; Spend much
time in secret with Jesus alone; By looking to Jesus, like Him thou shall be;
Thy friends in thy conduct His likeness shall see.
Take time to be holy let Him be thy guide, and run not
before Him, whatever betide; In joy or in sorrow, still follow thy Lord, and,
looking to Jesus, still trust in His Word.
Take time to be holy, be calm in thy soul; Each thought
and each motive beneath His control; Thus led by His Spirit to fountains of
love, thou soon shall be fitted for service above.”
