As I sit and reflect on this life that I live,

I think: “What have I gained?” “What have I to give?”

I look back on my past; I think: “What lies ahead?”

“Will this year turn out well?” “Are there things we should dread?”

No one knows all to come, though many see how we’re leaning;

“Will more end up just falling?” “Will more grasp life’s true meaning?”

I must be all I can be and do all I can do;

I know GOD will use me; I wonder: “Would GOD use you?”

Would GOD use you as one made from just dust?

Can HE count on your word? Are you one HE can trust?

Would GOD use you to speak Truth for HIS Name?

Will you pursue HIS best will? Will you seek your own fame?

Would GOD use you to help others succeed?

Do you love and serve them in both word and in deed?

Would GOD use you to bring others to HIM?

Do you let HIM shine forth or through self make HIM dim?

As CREATOR of all and of your life as well,

HE has the right to control how you live, what you’ll tell.

Yet, HE gives you a choice—how to live, what to say;

HE lets you choose your own path, knowing HE is the Way.

JESUS CHRIST is the Way and the Truth and the Life;

HE came down to this earth filled with sorrow and strife.

JESUS lived HIS life pure, free from sin, at great cost;

HE came to seek and to save HIS Creation—what was lost.

As CREATOR, REDEEMER, your SAVIOR and FRIEND,

JESUS owns everything, longs to save, wants to mend:

Your broken heart, burdened mind, tattered life, troubled soul;

As The POTTER, HE’s The BOSS—HE wants your life to control.

You can craft your own life, go your way, choose your path;

Yet, if so you would soon come to know GOD’s just wrath.

To reject JESUS CHRIST is your choice, this is true;

It’s HIS choice—to be used; now HE wants to use you.

In your life, in this year, trust in HIM, give HIM all;

Let HIM mold and make you, learn to answer HIS call.

HE has a plan for your life—what HE wants you to do;

You are free; it’s your choice—now, “Would GOD use you?”
