Lord, Use Me

Open my eyes,
to see as You see,
Use my voice to bring
hope and love to a dying world,
Cleanse me daily,
so I may be blameless in Your sight,
So Your light will clearly
shine through me,
A beacon of joy
to the downhearted,
A comforting embrace
to the hurt and grieving,
A confirmation of Your faithfulness
to the weak, afflicted, and searching.
Take my life and the gifts You
gave me,
before conception,
That I may reach people for You,
to show them the truth.
