Carols of Hope ‎#37

37. Let Me Live for Thee

1. In the straight and narrow way
Help me walk, dear Lord, I pray.
Keep me from all sinful strife
Lead me to eternal life.

Chorus:
Let me live, dear Lord, for thee,
May I ever useful be;
May thy Spirit dwell in me,
Let me live, dear Lord, for thee.

2 Help me every day to see
Little things to do for thee;
May I helpful be to all
Who shall for my service call. [Chorus]

3. All thou seest that is mine,
Take it, Lord, it shall be thine;
May I be a shining light
Pointing others to the right. [Chorus]

4. When my work on earth is done,
And life's race at last is run,
May I dwell in mansions bright,
Clothed with spotless raiment white. [Chorus]
