Let me burn out for you Lord
Burn and wear out  for you
From sin and dross
Show me your cross
Let me burn out for you

Let me burn out for you Lord
Burn and wear out for you
Thy Spirit Lead
Show me my need
Let me burn out for you

Let me burn out for you Lord
Burn and wear out for you
Show me your Son
Let the victory be won
Let me burn out for You

Let me burn out for you Lord
Burn and wear out for you
By faith show your  grace
Just to feel your embrace
Let me burn out for you

Let me burn out for you Lord
Burn and wear out for you
From sins evil way
By love may all sway
Let me burn out for you

Let me burn out for you Lord
Burn and wear out for you
In a wink of a eye
May we all spread the sky
Let me burn out for you

Remember  the Apostle Paul's statement," I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me". ( Philippians 4:13)

Are you burning out for Christ? Are you wearing out for Him ? Like the apostle  Paul,  we can do all through Christ who will  strengthen us. Going all out for Christ is what it's all about.

So, just stop and take a deep breath. Then, let God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit carry you through it all. If you are going to burn out, do it for the gospel. If you are going to wear out, do it for Him.

The scripture does not promise we will see results , from our labor. Only that we should go, in faith for our Lord. 

“All authority hath been given unto me in heaven and on earth. Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world” (Mt. 28:18-20 ).

Remember, it's better to burn out for our Lord, than to burn out for man.
