Place my hands upon the plow
And through the fields and barren plains
My mission be “There’s souls to gain.”
Help me use my hands this day
To do good works and pause to pray
To give you thanks for each provision
To look to You to guide decisions
Help me use what’s commonplace
In daily living to show your grace
A home-cooked meal with others share
To let them know I’ll always care
Help me spread love I’m receiving
To comfort those whose hearts are grieving
Let me be your whittling tool
As shavings drop, let heaven rule
Help me use each lesson learned
May actions show my deep concerns
For brothers and sisters who live next door
And those who dwell on distant shores
Please reveal each hidden treasure
Help me use them without measure
To honor you in muddied wakes
Of daily burdens or souls that quake
Help me be a catalyst
For those who doubt that You exist
Employ me in your army, Lord
Help me lead by heaven’s sword
Magnify Yourself in me
So others, your light will truly see
And when my earthly life is spent
May I rest in sweet retirement
