Coronation Hymns ‎#75

75. O to Do Something!

1 O to do something, something!
Something, my Savior, for Thee;
To show forth the wondrous power
Of the love that could save even me.
Something to do in Thy vineyard,
Tho' simple the service may be;
Something00Thy grace can find use for,
to win other wand'rers to Thee.

Chorus:
O to do something!
Something, my Savior, for Thee;
To show forth the wondrous power
Of the love that could save even me.

2 O to do something, something!
A word—or a light—or a song,—
to speak—or to shine for the Master,
Or sing,—to win lost ones from wrong.
The cup of cold water to offer
To those who in weariness stray,—
Thy "sure word of promise" to whisper
To those whom temptations dismay. [Chorus]

3 O to do something, something!
Where others Thy likeness may see;
That self may be lost in service,
And our lives only glorify Thee.
Ready to work or to suffer,
Whichever Thy love shall command;
Secure, whether shadow or sunshine—
They are all from Thy loving hand. [Chorus]
