Make Me Your Instrument
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace,
That I too may have it,
For how else can I share Your peace,
Unless I first may have it.
Give me Your light and let it shine,
Through My every word and deed;
For how else can I light the dark,
Unless You first light mine.
Be a guide unto my feet,
That I may follow Thee;
For how else can I guide the lost,
Unless You first guide me.
Give me Your wisdom Lord, I pray,
And let Your strength be mine;
For how else can I counsel,
Unless my example shines.
Lord, be my light and guide and strength,
For I stumble all alone.
Hold my hand so I won't fear,
And lead me safely home.
