| Text: | Make Me a Worker for Jesus |
| Author: | Roy Evans |
| Tune: | A WORKER FOR JESUS |
| Composer: | Edwin H. Bookmyer |
1 Make me a worker for Jesus,
Faithful and ready and true;
Asking the help of the Master
For work He would have me to do.
Chorus:
Make me a worker for Jesus,
Humble I only would be;
Winning lost souls for the Saviour
Who shed his life's blood for me.
2 Make me a worker for Jesus,
Filled with His heavenly love;
Binding the sheaves for the harvest,
When He shall come from above. [Chorus]
3 Make me a worker for Jesus,
Taking my place in the fight;
Giving my all to the Captain,
Fighting for all that is right. [Chorus]
4 Make me a worker for Jesus,
Knowing I never can fail;
If I but trust in His mercy,
Tempter nor sin can prevail. [Chorus]
5 Make me a worker for Jesus,
Till earth’s short harvest is o’er;
When I shall dwell with the Saviour
In that blest land evermore. [Chorus]
