A Worker for Jesus

Lyricist: Roy Evans, 1911
Composer: Edwin Bookmyer

Make me a work­er for Je­sus

Faithful and rea­dy and true;

Asking the help of the Mas­ter

For work He would have me do.

Make me a work­er for Je­sus

Humble I on­ly would be;

Winning lost souls for the Sav­ior

Who shed His life’s blood for me.

Make me a work­er for Je­sus

Filled with His heav­en­ly love;

Binding the sheaves of the har­vest

When He shall come from above.

Make me a work­er for Je­sus

Taking my place in the fight;

Giving my all to the Cap­tain

Fighting for all that is right.

Make me a work­er for Je­sus

Knowing I nev­er can fail;

If I but trust in His mer­cy

Tempter nor sin can pre­vail.

Make me a work­er for Je­sus

Till earth’s short har­vest is o’er;

When I shall dwell with the Sav­ior

In that blest land ev­er more.
