I’ll Speak a Word for Jesus

I’ll speak a word for Je­sus!

How could I si­lent be

When all my life

my Sav­ior

Has done so much for me?

I’ll speak a word for Je­sus!

My heart with joy doth sing!

Why should I fear to ren­der

This serv­ice for my king?

My tremb­ling lips may fal­ter

Yet glad­ly I will say

The mes­sage Je­sus gives me

To cheer some soul to­day.

I’ll speak a word for Je­sus!

His cleans­ing blood I know

And I must tell to oth­ers

The debt of love I owe.

A word! yes

for my Je­sus

I’ll speak till life shall end

That those who do not know Him

May find the sin­ner’s friend.
