Oh, to be Something

Author: Rev. Geo. W. Crofts Hymnal: Crowning Glory No. 2 #74 (1890) First Line: Oh, to be something, dear Savior, I pray Refrain First Line: Oh, to be something, my Savior, do Thou Lyrics: 1 Oh, to be something, dear Savior, I pray, Something of use to the world in my day; Something, dear Savior, whatever it be, Something, yes something of honor to Thee. Chorus: Oh, to be something, my Savior, do Thou Make of me something, yes something just now; Something, dear Savior, whatever it be, Something, yes, something of honor to Thee. 2 Something, where spirits are burdened with sin, Something, those spirits for heaven to win; Something, to woo them to Calvary's cross, Something, to give them pure gold for their dross. [Chorus] 3 Something to open the eyes of the blind, Something to lighten the sin-darkened mind; Something, to lead them to fountains of love, Something, to point them to mansions above. [Chorus] 4 Something to solace eternity's fears, Something to cheer when eternity nears; Something, to banish death's venomous sting, Something, to help them life's triumphs to sing. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Oh, to be something, dear Savior, I pray]
