If you know where to get a good photo of Highfield (head & shoulders, at least 200×300 pixels),
Like a vessel fashioned by the Master’s hand,
Tho’ your place be lowly, be ye cleaned and holy;
That among His chosen you in truth may stand,
Let the Master use you in His work today.
Refrain
Like a vessel fashioned by His hand,
Let the Master find a use for you;
Pure and sweet and holy keep your heart for Him;
Jesus wants you to be true.
Come, your all surrender to the God of grace,
In your needy hour He can give you power;
Made a worthy vessel, fill your waiting place,
Let the Master use you in His work today.
Refrain
Yield to Him the talents of your life so fair,
Follow as He leads you to the one who needs you,
If you would be worthy in His love to share,
Let the Master use you in His work today.
Refrain
