Set apart a chosen vessel
To the King of kings;
Set apart forever severed
From all earthly things.
Set apart to lavish on Him
All the heart's rich store,
And within His heart to enter
Deeper evermore.
Set apart to bear the fragrance
Of His blessed Name,
And with Him to share the sufferings
Of a cross of shame.
Set apart with Him to suffer
O'er a world undone,
And to stand in fiercest conflict
Till the fight be won.
Set apart no reputation
On this earth had He.
For thy sake reproach fell on Him,
For His sake on thee.
Set apart to walk with Jesus,
God's beloved Son;
This the record of thy journey
And they two went on.
