Songs and Bhajans - August 24

This section - Interfaith - is an idea from Siddharth Prabhu ... His idea is to put together a database of quotes from outside Gaudiya Vaisnavism that have explicit / implicit personalistic spiritual connotation.  We'll be sending out the exacts of the implementation plan to you next week.  But until then, I thought I'd add the lyrics to one of my favorite christian songs that has always been an amazing source of shelter & encouragement ... "My heart and my hands are lifted to you ...".  Actually the song's name is "I offer my life".  Hope you enjoy it !!!

All that I am ... All that I have ...
I lay them down before you, O Lord !
All my regrets ... all my acclaims
The joy and the pain
Iam making them yours ...

( Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I've been through
Use if for your glory

Lord, I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice 
Lord I offer you my life ... ) Chorus

Things in the past ... Things yet unseen ...
Wishes and dreams that are yet to come true
All of my hopes, all of my pains
My heart and my hands are lifted to you !
.... Chorus

What can we give that you have not given
What do we have that is not already yours
All we posses, are these lives we're living
And that's what we give to you lord
.... Chorus
