O LORD LET ME BE THY SWORD gospel hymn lyrics
by Joel Sattler

[for those in battle]

O Lord O Lord
let me be Thy sword
O Lord
let me be Thy sword

let me be an instrument of Thy will
my destiny fulfill

if I take my last breath
as I walk through
the valley of the shadow
of the shadow of death
let me know
that the way leads to You

take me by the hand
set me to do as Thee commands

let me fear no evil
let me feel the blessedness
let me walk the path
of Thine righteousness

and in my hour of darkness
Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me
my cup runneth over and I am free
surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

as I step into the house of the Lord
let me be thy sword

O Lord O Lord
let me be Thy sword
O Lord
let me be Thy sword
