Author: Ira B. Wilson (1880-1950) Hymnal: Lift Every Voice and Sing II #158 (1993) 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.
Refrain:
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 power to forgive;
Others will trust Him if only you prove
True, every moment you live, [Refrain]
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. [Refrain] Topics: Hymns and Songs Evangelism Languages: English Tune Title: [Out in the highways and byways of life]
