11291. Something For Thee

1 My talents are few, dearest Master,
Yet I long of some use to be;
Then tell me, I pray Thee, dear Jesus,
How may I do something for Thee?

Refrain:
Something for Thee, something for Thee,
Oh, tell me, I pray Thee, dear Master,
How may I do something for Thee?

2 I cannot with fiery warnings
Make the wicked their guilt to see;
Yet surely some pathway is open,
Where I may do something for Thee? [Refrain]

3 No riches, alas! can I give Thee,
For they never have come to me;
But freely I lay on Thy altar,
My life, to do something for Thee. [Refrain]
