Chester Baldwin - The Lord Made Me For Song
The Lord Made Me For Song
(written by Chester D. T. Baldwin)
(recorded by Chester D.T. Baldwin & Music Ministry Mass)
Verse 1:
Lord, You made me,
You created me in Your image.
Now I'm an instrument, that's what I am,
I'm skillfully, I'm fearfully,
I'm wonderfully made.
Chorus 1:
You made me for song
and it's not for myself.
You made me for melodies,
so I could help someone else.
Now I've gotta be used in Your service, Lord,
You made me for praise,
You made me just to worship Your Holy name;
now I'm an instrument,
and I wanna be used by You.
Verse 2:
My mother bought a piano,
when no one in the family could even play.
But my God in His infinivte wisdom,
He knew that Jessie's little baby boy
would need that piano one day.
Chorus 2:
She said, "Papa, God me you for song",
"and you know what, it's even not for yourself".
She said, "He annointed you from up above",
"so you could help someone else".
Now I've gotta be used in Your service, Lord,
You made me for praise,
You made me just to worship Your Holy name;
now I'm an instrument,
and I wanna be used by You.
Vamp 1:
Use me, Lord,
use me, Master,
I'm Your instrument.
He gave the harmony,
He gave the melody,
He wrote the song
in my heart to say.
(repeat as desired)
Use me, Lord,
and I wanna be used...
(I wanna be used by You).
Vamp 2:
The Lord made me for song.
Ending:
And I wanna be used...
(I wanna be used by You).
