An altar of remembrance
Is what I bring to you
An overflow of thankfulness
For all you've brought me through
The power of Your love for me
In famine and in feast
Unnumbered blessings poured on me
The greatest to the least
An altar of remembrance
I'm building every day
Each act of Your unfailing grace
Each answer to my when I pray
So faithful to this faithless one
So patient with my pride
Complete in me what You've begun
A portrait of the Christ
Take my life and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee
My ev'ry thought, my ev'ry deed
An offering to you
An altar of remembrance
That stands for years to come
When I am called to heaven's rest
My story lingers on
Let those who follow on the way
Take courage in the race
You fashioned from this jar of clay
A trophy of Your grace
