This Wednesday my churches Missions Revival will start. I look forward to it every year! It’s where missionaries and church planters come from different countries and states like Sri Lanka, Burkina Faco, and Minnesota and they tell us how things are going on the field. Then we get to hear them preach.
One of my favorite parts about the Missions Revival is the part we call “Catch the Burden.” It’s the time where we go see the missionary’s slides and they tell us how we can pray for them. I enjoy getting to see the missionary’s heart and seeing their burden for those people. Therefore I catch the burden for those people.
. This song that I’m sharing with you is my prayer for my life. I don’t want this revival just to be another meeting that I go to. I want God to speak to me in a special way! I want God to show me how I can be a better witness to those around me and to those around the world. This song is called, “A Tender Heart.” The chorus and the second verse is my prayer. The verse says,
“Use me now, Lord Jesus, use me,
As I tell of Calvary.
May Thy Spirit move within me,
Bringing souls to Thee”
It’s my desire to be used by God, rather by giving, going or just by praying and encouraging We all should have that desire to be used by God. I hope this song becomes your hearts desire and is a blessing to you.
A TENDER HEART
Ron Hamilton
Verse 1
Take me now, Lord Jesus, take me;
I would give my heart to Thee.
Thy devoted servant make me,
Only Thine to be.
Chorus
Savior, while my heart is tender,
I would give Thee every part.
All my talents I surrender;
I am Thine, Lord, here’s my heart.
Verse 2
Use me now, Lord Jesus, use me,
As I tell of Calvary.
May Thy Spirit move within me,
Bringing souls to Thee.
Chorus
Savior, while my heart is tender,
I would give Thee every part.
All my talents I surrender;
I am Thine, Lord, here’s my heart.
Verse 3
Send me now, Lord Jesus, send me,
Lead me in Thy perfect way.
Thy command shall always guide me;
Gladly I obey.
Chorus
Savior, while my heart is tender,
I would give Thee every part.
All my talents I surrender;
I am Thine, Lord, here’s my heart.
