Make me a blessing, Lord, to every person I meet,
Cause the spirit within me to be God-honoring and sweet;
I never know when someone along life’s way,
Might need encouraging by something I say.
Make me a blessing, Lord, regardless of what people say,
Keep my eyes upon you with each passing day;
For I never know when the words that I speak,
Might be strength for the soul who’s weary or weak.
Make me a blessing, Lord, by the very look on my face,
Pour out upon my life your bountiful mercy and grace;
I never know when I might meet someone who’s down,
Who just needs a smile instead of a frown.
So make me a blessing, Lord, in my heart and soul,
I pray in every way, you’ll always have control;
Lead me down life’s pathway from day to day,
That you might be seen and heard in all I do and say.
