John Wesley's "Covenant Prayer"
"I am no longer my own, but Yours.Put me to what You will,
Rank me with whoever 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!And now, O Father,
You are mine and I am Yours.So be it. And the covenant I am making on earth,
Let it be ratified in heaven. Amen.
"I am no longer my own, but Yours.Put me to what You will,

Or laid aside for You.Exalted for You, or

Let me be empty.
Let me have all things,
Let me have nothing!And now, O Father,
You are mine and I am Yours.So be it. And the covenant I am making on earth,
