To Touch One Life Today

Lord, help me change one life today,
To touch one heart for You,
To be Your hands and feet, I pray,
To do as You would do.

Though billions live around the earth,
I cannot reach them all;
I’d waste today pursuing worth
And miss the greater call.

Its those I know and those I meet
Whose lives I’ll shape today –
I’ll lift them up or help defeat
Pursue its grinding way.

Don’t let me miss the one You’ve sent
For me to lift and love –
I’m not my own, I represent
My King who reigns above.

Please help me touch a life today –
Lord, love a soul through me,
So when night falls that one can say,
“God really cares for me!”
