All to Thee

I found the words to the song "All to Thee" while thumbing through journal writings from 2005. The song is in the 1975 Baptist Hymnal and written in 1966 by Richard D. Baker. I cannot find a video of it (words and music) on YouTube.com or elsewhere, but I can share the words with you. And perhaps you too will discover all you need is HIM.

I have heard the voice of Jesus
Calling clearly Follow me; 
No one else would ever promise
life eternal and so free. 

Tho' unworthy of salvation,
Jesus sought me for His own;
On the cross He died to save me,
Now I long to make Him known. 

Only Jesus is the answer
For the happiness we seek;
He alone can lift life's burden,
And give strength unto the weak.

All to thee, I give my all to thee, 
All to thee, thine only will I be;
All to thee, O Christ of Calvary, 
My prayer shall ever be, 
my all to thee.

  1. A beautiful song. I know the melody but do not have the music. I hope someone will supply the sheet music for it.l

  2. The Baylor Religious Hour Choir (from Baylor University) recorded an arrangement of this hymn on their most recent CD, "Light the Way." I don't believe it is available online, but you could probably find a hard copy!
