Have I spok­en words of love,
Or self­ish have I gone?
Have I made some black­ness white,
Or sung a cheer­ful song?
Have I brought a smile of hope,
Or wiped sad tears away?
Have I done a sin­gle thing
In Je­sus’ name to­day?
Father, in pe­ni­tence plead­ing,
Forgiveness I ask not in vain;
Tomorrow, if spared thro’ Thy mer­cy,
I’ll serve Thee again and again.
I’ll lift up the bruis­èd and fall­en,
I’ll lead the blind to the light;
For to­day I’ve done no­thing for Je­sus—
Hold me close in Your arms to­night.

Have I held the Sav­ior’s face
Enshrined with­in my heart?
Have I lived for gain of gold,
My life ab­sorbed in mart?
Have I vi­sit­ed the sick,
Their fe­ver to al­lay?
Have I done a sin­gle thing
In Je­sus’ name to­day?
Father, in pe­ni­tence plead­ing,
Forgiveness I ask not in vain;
Tomorrow, if spared thro’ Thy mer­cy,
I’ll serve Thee again and again.
I’ll lift up the bruis­èd and fall­en,
I’ll lead the blind to the light;
For to­day I’ve done no­thing for Je­sus—
Hold me close in Your arms to­night.

Traveler worn with wea­ry feet,
Behold the Mas­ter’s face;
Sin-sick soul, all tem­pest torn,
Repose in His em­brace;
Weary ones, heart-ach­ing ones,
Behold, His is the way,
Let me lead you to the Christ
In Je­sus’ name to­day.
Father, Thy name I have spok­en,
I’ve walked close be­side Thee all day,
I’ve clung to the hem of Thy gar­ment,
In fear lest I lose my way.
I’ve told oth­ers that sweet old sto­ry
From Heav’n they’ve seen Thy light;
Today I’ve done some­thing for Je­sus,
Let me rest in His arms to­night.
