He Won't Use Me If I Don't Go

If the blind man needs a guiding hand,

I can lift him up; I can help him stand.

If the hungry child needs a loaf of bread,

I can share a meal, I can cradle his head.

I can share God's Word and let them know.

But He won't use me if I don't go.

 

When the homeless father beds his sons at night,

I can share my bounty to help his plight.

If the single mom needs a comb or brush,

I can meet her need with a gentle touch.

When He calls my name I can help them grow,

But He won't use me if I don't go.

 

The teenage boy needs a fatherly ear,

The teenage girl lives with doubt and fear.

There's a lonely woman without a friend.

This man needs a job, but his past shows a trend.

If I love them as Christ does, then they'll know.

But He won't use me if I don't go.

 

If I listen to heartaches I can share the pain.

If I comfort the babies I can ease the strain.

If their way is encumbered with evil and sin

I can tell of my Savior and invite them in.

I can share in God's mission where He leads me, but lo,

I know He won't use me if I don't go.
