1
Worldly affairs encumbered me; till the Lord said, “Come, follow Me!”
I was exhausted, faltering; still He called and would not leave me be;
At once, when I responded: “Yes!”, He shined His glad’ning ray!
Glory, rest, shouts of praise fill all my days as I follow on His way.

2
Though in this world a way exists
Filled with crowds with greatness obsessed;
My heart already is possessed, let those who would take it try their best;
Lord, I’ve been sanctified by Thee, For God alone I’m meant,
My all is in Your sovereign hand, all for the new way to be spent.

3
No man can serve two masters, from God and the world seek reward,
Whether ’tis spent or whether reserved, ointment can but once be outpoured;
Lord, You’re my only one true love, I’d ne’er repent nor swerve.
Lord, You alone are worthy of all my life and all my love.

chorus
Upon this altar of consecration, supply the flame; refine me, I pray;
Lord, You chose me, ’twas mercy and grace; Gladly I choose Thee, to repay.
The days of this life don’t seem that special, but the earth to heaven they join;
In Your smile’s delight, I fix my sight, running towards th’ eternal crown.

Chosen - Worldly affairs encumbered me

Tour of a lifetime Part 29 

We should be a sojourner always seeking for the better country. We are truly not for this world. 

Not for this world (TOLT23)

There was a lot of speaking from the saints that slowly made me realize how much ungrateful I am to my Lord. How arrogant and stubborn I am no matter how zealous I may look. I never realized that it's so hard to be submissive and to let Him do His will. 

Every line of this hymn is part of my experience. But opening to the Lord to praise Him would always be hardest part because we think we should be victorious first before we praise. We ask for many things not knowing that our breath right now should be enough to move us to praise the Lord. 

Last Chorus: 
Now I open my heart
	To offer praise to Thee.
	Your name is infinite plenitude!
	Oh, Jesus Lord!
	You’re everything to me!

To my Lord - Infinite gratitude

Recorded this before the YP meeting starts. I really am touched by the content of this hymn, and I pray to have such an experience of Christ that the season or place wouldn't matter because I am content beholding His face and His presence. "Take me to Thee up on high, where winter and clouds are no more", oh to experience Christ in His ascension! Hallelujah.

How tedious and tasteless the hours - with CP (New tune)

Lord, today, keep my heart,
Keep it all the day.
While I’m young, keep my heart
Soft, dear Lord, I pray;
Lord, I would keep my heart through everyday
Soft and open unto You.

May the Lord make us simple like little children, day after day.
Much grace!
