speak just a word

Speak just a word for Jesus,

tell how He died for you,

often repeat the story,

wonderful, glad and true!




Speak just a word,

ever to Him be true;

speak just a word,

tell what He's doing for you!




Speak just a word for Jesus,

tell how He helps you live,

tell of the strength and comfort

which He will freely give!




Speak just a word for Jesus,

do not for others wait;

gladly proclaim the message

ere it shall be too late!




Speak just a word for Jesus,

why should you doubt or fear?

Surely His love will bless it;

some one will gladly hear.




Speak just a word for Jesus,

tell of His love for men!

Some one distressed may listen,

willing to trust Him then
