Take My All
← Back to AlbumAbout This Song
“Take My All” embodies a heartfelt offering of everything we are and possess to God’s service. It moves beyond acknowledging He deserves this; it voices a desire that every thought, talent, and relationship would be used for His Kingdom purposes. The lyrics depict a willing surrender, casting aside fear and trusting God’s plan above even earthly security or comforts.
Emotional Heart:
This song pulses with passion and a touch of fearlessness. There’s a joyful zeal at the prospect of fully living for God, yet an acknowledgement of the sacrifice this entails. However, the lyrics reveal a core belief: His purposes are worth any cost, for in His hands, our gifts can accomplish far beyond our limited perspective. It evokes a willingness to step out in courageous faith, knowing that nothing withheld from God is ever truly lost.

Scripture Foundation:
-
- Luke 12:33-34: “Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
- 1 Chronicles 29:14: “But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand.”
- Mark 10:29-30: “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age…and in the age to come eternal life.”
Deep Dive:
Laying everything before God isn’t a begrudging duty, but a joyous response to His immeasurable generosity. The Bible consistently highlights two principles: God owns it all (even what we feel ‘earned’), and generosity unlocks blessings beyond material gain. Jesus’ radical promise in Mark emphasizes that the ‘ROI’ for sacrifice extends both spiritually and practically. Yet, He doesn’t promise ease, as true surrender often includes earthly uncertainty. Trust becomes the cornerstone.
Relevance to the Song:
“Take My All” echoes this zealous giving that surpasses even comfort – offering talents, fears, everything – laid in willing hands for His purposes. It acknowledges a cost, but underscores the overwhelming belief that when God ‘uses’ all of us, the result far outweighs what’s held back.
Application for the Listener:
-
-
- Inventory time, money, & skills. Do you give the ‘leftovers’ to God, or firstfruits of each to express trust?
- Examine your clinging. Where does fear that God won’t provide hinder generosity beyond comfort levels?
- Jesus asks us to leave earthly security. Is there an act of ‘leaving’ obedience He calls to, regardless of results?
-
Closing Prayer:
Father, my hand feels so cramped, gripping tightly to what I fear losing. Give me the grace of open palms, not out of self-righteous ‘sacrifice’, but from deep belief in Your abundant goodness. Teach me the thrill of holding nothing back, trusting only in the richness of Your Kingdom. Make me a conduit of love and provision to others, reflecting Your own heart of joyful generosity. Amen

Song Lyrics
Take My All
Verse 1
All that I possess, and all that I hold dear,
My earthly comforts, all that soothes my fear,
I lay them down before You, a sacrifice refined,
In trembling hands, I place them, leaving none behind.
Chorus
Take my all, and use me as You will,
Every talent, every treasure, surrendered to fulfill
Your perfect plan unfolding, Your kingdom drawing near,
All that I am, I offer, casting out all fear.
Verse 2
My guarded heart, with all its wounds and scars,
The hidden dreams and secrets locked behind those bars.
Let Your light shine brightly, every shadow chased away,
Until every broken piece reflects Your glorious ray.
Chorus
Take my all, and use me as You will,
Every talent, every treasure, surrendered to fulfill
Your perfect plan unfolding, Your kingdom drawing near,
All that I am, I offer, casting out all fear.
Bridge
Not for earthly riches, nor for transient fame,
But let Your name be lifted, magnified in shame.
My every breath, a joyful echo of Your worth,
Your purpose my true mission, from my humble birth.
Outro
Take my all, and mold me day by day,
A vessel of Your glory, Your goodness to display.
All that I am, a gift laid at Your feet,
Your loving hands complete me, Your embrace makes life so sweet.
Pray for a heart of joyful surrender—one that offers every talent, treasure, and fear to God for His glory and purpose. May the Lord receive your whole-hearted surrender and use your life as a radiant vessel of His glory, lacking nothing in His hands.Spiritual Engagement
