EXPLANATION OF THE GLOSSING SYSTEM
(to understand how I describe the signs in this translation).
1. REMOVE, LORD, ACCEPT ALL MY DESIRE STRAY.
MY MEMORY, MY WHOLE WILL, BECOME YOURS.
Antiphon: GIFT-TO-me ME ONLY ||: YOUR-rt LOVE
AND YOUR-rt GRACE. THEN ME SATISFIED. :||
2. REMOVE, LORD, ACCEPT EVERYTHING ME HAVE, INDEX-LIST.
YOU-rt alt.GIFT-TO-me ME SO-MUCH.
NOW ME OFFER-UP #BACK-TO YOU-rt. Antiphon
3. REMOVE, LORD, ACCEPT EVERYTHING NOW YOURS-rt.
USE WHAT ME USED-TO CONTROL, FOLLOW YOUR-rt WILL. Antiphon
Notes: STRAY
WILL - WANT but shaken back and forth to show intensity.
GIFT-TO-me - (2h)[X], POs ><, FOs up, hands alt. flip thumb sides > signer.
ME - Underlined words are honorific indices ("indexes"), using the FT of the upturned palm to indicate who is being honored.
The signs between "||:" and ":||" are to be repeated.
GRACE - [O^] or [S], held high and PO > Heaven, supinates and opens to [5] while being brought towards head. For an animated gif of this sign, see Animated dictionary of religious signs - Deaf Missions: Grace.
INDEX-LIST - index finger of DH points to thumb, then index finger, then middle finger of NDH [5], PO > signer, FO > DS.
SO-MUCH - (2h)[5:], POs ><, FOs away, separate while "so much" is mouthed.
OFFER-UP - (2h)[B], POs down, descend while twisting PO to up and lift up hands moving them towards God.
#BACK-TO-rt - (2h)[B], POs > rt, FOs up; the hands transition to a C and then a K while rushing towards rt.
Lyrics:
1. Take, Lord, receive all my liberty,
my memory, understanding, my entire will.
Antiphon: Give me only your love and your grace: that's enough for me.
Your love and your grace are enough for me.
2. Take, Lord, receive all I have an possess.
You have given all to me; now I return it.
3. Take, Lord, receive, all is yours now;
dispose of it wholly according to your will.
