38. I Do Not Ask to Choose My Path

1 I do not ask to choose my path.
Lord, lead me in Thy way;
Inspire each tho't and prompt each word,
And make me a blessing today.

Refrain
Bless me, Lord, and make me a blessing;
I'll gladly Thy message convey.
Use me to help some poor, needy soul,
And make me a blessing today.

2 Around me, Lord, are sinful men,
Who scorn and disobey;
Use me to win them from their sins,
And make me a blessing today. [Refrain]

3 To those who once Thy love have known,
But now are far astray;
Help me to win them back to Thee,
And make me a blessing today. [Refrain]

4 Some saints of Thine are in distress,
And for deliv'rance pray;
Oh, let me go and help them, Lord,
And make me a blessing today. [Refrain]

5 Whatever errand Thou hast. Lord,
Send me, and I'll obey.
Use me in any way Thou wilt,
And make me a blessing today. [Refrain]
