New Covenant for a New Year

I am no longer my own, but Yours.
Put me to what You will,
Rank me with whom You will;
Put me to doing, put me to suffering;
Let me be employed for You, or laid aside for You,
Exalted for You, or brought low for You;
Let me be full, let me be empty,
Let me have all things, let me have nothing:
I freely and wholeheartedly yield
      ALL THINGS
To Your pleasure and disposal.
And now, glorious and blessed God,
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
You are mine and I am Yours.
      SO BE IT.
And the covenant now made on Earth,
Let it be ratified in heaven.
Amen.
 - John Wesley
