75. Make Me a Blessing Today

1 I would be a blessing to the world, dear Lord;
I would magnify Thy holy name;
I would be a witness heralding Thy word,
And Thy saving grace proclaim.

Refrain:
Make me a blessing, Lord, today;
Use me, my blessed Lord divine,
Where’er I go in this wide world below,
Let me ever for Thee shine.

2 I would be a blessing to some soul each day;
I would seek some wanderer in sin,
Go into the highway where they are astray,
And to Thee some lost ones win. [Refrain]

3 I would be a blessing aided by Thy grace,
And there’ll be no more fruitless tree;
Lord, among Thy servants I will take my place,
And go forth and serve for Thee. [Refrain]
