Author: Mrs. Frank A. Breck Hymnal: Rodeheaver's Gospel Songs for church, Sunday Schools and evangelistic services #190 (1922) First Line: Amid life's busy, hurrying throng Refrain First Line: I want my life to tell for Jesus! Lyrics: 1 Amid life's busy, hurrying throng,
The gay, the sad, the weak, the strong,
While I am traveling along,
I want my life to tell for Jesus.
Refrain:
I want my life to tell for Jesus!
I want my life to tell for Jesus,
That ev'rywhere I go,
Men may His goodness know,
I want my life to tell for Jesus!
2 I want to be a beacon light
To cheer wayfarers in their night,
And help them on their way aright;
I want my life to tell for Jesus. [Refrain]
3 I want my life with Jesus hid,
That I may do what He shall bid;
I want to love as Jesus did;
I want my life to tell for Jesus. [Refrain]
4 To wealth and fame I would not climb,
But I would know God's peace sublime,
And ev'rywhere—and all the time,
I want my life to tell for Jesus. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Amid life's busy, hurrying throng]
