Christian Hymns ‎#352

352. Somebody Else Needs A Blessing

1 We’re "counting" the blessings, our joys we record,
The wonderful mercies like sunbeams out-poured;
But let us remember while praising the Lord,
Somebody else needs a blessing.

Chorus:
Somebody else needs a blessing,
Somebody else needs a blessing;
We’ll let our lights shine to His glory divine,
Somebody else needs a blessing.

2 We’ll go, like the Savior, to comfort the sad;
With love’s healing portion we’ll make others glad,
Until, with fresh verdure, life’s deserts are clad;
Somebody else needs a blessing. [Chorus]

3 We’ll tell the old story again and again;
Salvation for sinners, good will unto men,
Till gospel songs echo from mountain to glen;
Somebody else needs a blessing. [Chorus]
