It Would Be

If I could reach, one drowning soul,

point them to You, their cares to roll,

It would be, worth it all,

Calm just one crying, little child,

depict Your heart, tender and mild,

It would be, worth it all,

If I could catch, one falling tear,

call just one wandering soul, draw near

It would be worth it all,

One troubled mind, their burden share,

prove to one lonely soul, You care,

It would be worth it all,

If I could lay, my own life down,

that other’s may, in You be found,

It would be worth it all,

It would my King, be worth it all,

a tiny sacrifice, so small,

my life to give, for Heaven’s gain,

my heart’s obedience, to Your reign,

It would, be worth it all.

My King, it would be worth it all.
