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 pow'r to forgive;
Others will trust him if only you prove
True, ev'ry 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]

1 Muchos qui viven en tu derredor,
tristes, hambrientos están;
tú, por tu vida, les puedes llevar
gozo, luz y bendición.
Estribillo:
Usa mi vida, usa mi vida
para tu gloria, oh Jesús;
todos los días y hoy quiero ser
testigo tuyo, Señor, por doquier.
2 Di a los tristes que Dios es amor;
él quiere dar su perdón
a los que vienen a Cristo Jesús
buscando paz, salvación. [Estribillo]
3 Toda tu vida hoy rinde al Señor,
cada momento sé fiel;
otros que vean en ti su amor,
pronto se rinan a él. [Estribillo]
