After the fourth and fifth we read each time, but they refused to repent and glorify Him. Even after the final bowl, the people cursed the Lord. As in Egypt land, many years before, the refrain about pharaoh was that he hardened his heart. God is patient with His people as a Father to His children, but at the same time, He is just. We were created to serve Him and those around us and not ourselves. In all what I do this day, is it the Lord God I am serving? Not my way oh Lord, but Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Help me also on this day Lord to live the moment for eternity in Your presence. Take my life, and let it be consecrated, Lord, to Thee. Take my moments and my days; let them flow in ceaseless praise. Take my hands, and let them move at the impulse of Thy love. Take my feet, and let them be swift and beautiful for Thee. Take my voice, and let me sing always, only, for my King. Take my lips, and let them be filled with messages from Thee. Take my silver and my gold; not a mite would I withhold. Take my intellect, and use every power as Thou shalt choose. Take my will, and make it Thine; it shall be no longer mine. Take my heart, it is Thine own; it shall be Thy royal throne. Take my love, my Lord, I pour at Thy feet its treasure store. Take myself, and I will be ever, only, all for Thee. After the first three bowls of wrath we read that the judgements of the Lord are right and true.

Help me also on this day Lord to live the moment for eternity in Your presence.

Take my life, and let it be consecrated, Lord, to Thee.
Take my moments and my days; let them flow in ceaseless praise.
Take my hands, and let them move at the impulse of Thy love.
Take my feet, and let them be swift and beautiful for Thee.

Take my voice, and let me sing always, only, for my King.
Take my lips, and let them be filled with messages from Thee.
Take my silver and my gold; not a mite would I withhold.
Take my intellect, and use every power as Thou shalt choose.

Take my will, and make it Thine; it shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart, it is Thine own; it shall be Thy royal throne.
Take my love, my Lord, I pour at Thy feet its treasure store.
Take myself, and I will be ever, only, all for Thee.
