Composer: | Chas. H. Gabriel |
1 Live to be a blessing, carry hope and cheer
Into darkened places, rays of hope and cheer;
Trusting in your Saviour, in His footsteps go;
Let His life, unhindered, thro’ your actions flow.
Refrain:
Live to be a blessing! time is on the wing!
Up, and look about you! help the world to sing;
If you give to others, grace will He bestow;
Like the stars unnumbered will your blessings grow.
2 Live to be a blessing, like the morning dew
To the summer blowing, bearing joy anew;
Bring a sweet refreshing to some fainting heart;
Unto someone burdened, kindly help impart. [Refrain]
3 Live to be a blessing! Go from place to place
With the love of Jesus shining in your face;
Where you find the needy, take His mercies there;
Freely now with others all your blessings share. [Refrain]
