Author: Ira B. Wilson, 1880-1950 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #342 (1957) First Line: Out in the highways and byways of life Lyrics: 1 Out in the highways and byways of life,
Many 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 may Jesus shine;
Make me a blessing,
O Saviour, I pray,
Make me a blessing to someone today.
2 Tell the sweet story of Christ and His love,
Tell of 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;
Be to the helpless a helper indeed,
Unto your mission be true. (Refrain) Topics: Benevolence; Dedication of Life; Stewardship of Life and Talents; The Christian Way of Life Aspiration and Consecration Languages: English Tune Title: [Out in the highways and byways of life]
