Make My Life a Blessing

Lord, help me be a blessing
To those I know and meet
To show Your love and mercy,
Your grace and strength complete.

Direct my thoughts to see them
As Jesus would, I pray,
And give me His compassion
To care for those who stray.

Give words of tender mercy,
Encouragement, and love;
Lord, help me speak the Scriptures
And point each soul above.

Please guide my very actions
To demonstrate Your care
So through me they might realize
That You are really there.

Lord, make my life a blessing
In everything each day
That Christ may be exalted
Through all I do and say.
