Verse 1
I want to work for Jesus, I want to praise His name;
I want to live for Him each day, His blessings to proclaim.
I want to be a winner Of precious souls for Him;
I want to lead some wand'ring one From paths of death and sin.
I want to live for Him each day, His blessings to proclaim.
I want to be a winner Of precious souls for Him;
I want to lead some wand'ring one From paths of death and sin.
Verse 2
I want to follow Jesus Wherever He shall lead,
Tho' steep the path or rough the way, His biddings I will heed.
I'm not ashamed of Jesus, Why should I ever be,
When He hath died my soul to save, Thro' all eternity?
Tho' steep the path or rough the way, His biddings I will heed.
I'm not ashamed of Jesus, Why should I ever be,
When He hath died my soul to save, Thro' all eternity?
Verse 3
I want to live for Jesus, My life to Him I owe;
I want to wear His yoke divine, My ev'ry duty know.
I want to serve Him daily, And strong in patience grow;
That I may help to save the world From dark dispair and woe.
I want to wear His yoke divine, My ev'ry duty know.
I want to serve Him daily, And strong in patience grow;
That I may help to save the world From dark dispair and woe.
Refrain
Oh, help me Lord, I pray, To win some souls each day;
My mission help me to fulfill, According to Thy will.
My mission help me to fulfill, According to Thy will.
