16394. Make Me A Worker For Jesus

1 Make me a work­er for Je­sus,
Steadfast and ear­nest and true;
Willing to work for the Mas­ter,
What He would have me to do!

Refrain:
Make me a work­er for Jesus,
Humble my la­bor may be,
But cheer­ful­ly done for the Mas­ter,
Who hath done great things for me.

2 Let me be brave in the con­flict,
Ready to go where He needs,
Sowing good seed for the har­vest—
Plucking up bri­ars and weeds. [Refrain]

3 Let me go out to the har­vest
Faithfully do­ing my part,
Gathering sheaves for the glean­ing,
Steadfast of pur­pose and heart. [Refrain]

4 Make me a work­er for Jesus,
Trusting Him ne­ver in vain,
Glad if I bind for the Ma­ster,
Sheaves of God’s beau­ti­ful grain. [Refrain]
