If there be some weaker one,
Give me strength to help him on;
If a blinder soul there be,
Let me guide him nearer Thee;
Make my mortal dreams come true
With the work I fain would do;
Clothe with life the weak intent,
Let me be the thing I meant;
Let me find in Thy employ
Peace that dearer is than joy;
Out of self to Love be led,
And in heaven acclimated,
Until all things sweet and good
Seem my nature’s habitude.
The followers of Christ are so identified with their Master that everything they do affects His cause. He depends upon them for their help in all His work. On His cross, as He died, Jesus said: “it is finished.” His work was done; redemption was complete. But when He returned to His glory He left His disciples on the earth, and their part was to carry the good news to all men. For this they were responsible. This responsibility is ours in the present age. If we have received the news we are, by virtue of this very fact, divinely commissioned to bear it to others. “Let him that heareth say, Come.”
