Text: | Make Me a Blessing |
Author: | Ira B. Wilson |
Tune: | SCHULER |
Composer: | George S. Schuler |
1 Out in the highways and byways of life
many are weary and sad: [are weary and sad:]
carry the sunshine where darkness is rife,
making the sorrowing glad.
[Refrain:]
Make me a blessing,
Make me a blessing,
out of my life [out of my life]
may Jesus shine;
make me a blessing, O Savior, I pray,
[I pray thee, my Savior,]
make me a blessing to someone today.
2 Tell the sweet story of Christ and his love;
tell of His power to forgive: [his power to forgive:]
others will trust him if only you prove
true, every moment you live. (Refrain)
3 Give as 'twas given to you in your need;
love as the Master loved you; [the Master loved you;]
be to the helpless a helper indeed;
unto your mission be true. (Refrain)
