Author: Ira B. Wilson Hymnal: Baptist Hymnal 1991 #569 (1991) Meter: 10.7.10.7 with refrain Hymnal Title: Baptist Hymnal 1991 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.
Make me a blessing,
Make me a blessing,
Out of my life may Jesus shine;
Make me a blessing, O Savior, I pray,
Make me a blessing to someone today.
2. Tell the sweet story of Christ and His love,
Tell of His pow'r to forgive;
Others will trust Him if only you prove
True, ev'ry moment you live.
Make me a blessing,
Make me a blessing,
Out of my life may Jesus shine;
Make me a blessing, O Savior, I pray,
Make me a blessing to someone today.
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.
Make me a blessing,
Make me a blessing,
Out of my life may Jesus shine;
Make me a blessing, O Savior, I pray,
Make me a blessing to someone today.
