If giving from the heart
Can bring us so much joy,
Think how great God's bliss must be,
Who gave the world His Son beloved,
A Son who lived to serve His Father,
Who gave his all to set men free.
Lived to serve? The King of Kings?
God's gift the highest?
Him who we gladly bow down to,
Adore and serve,
And count ourselves blessed?
Yes, lived to give, to serve,
As you and I must do.
"I am among you as he that serveth"
Our blessed Master says in Luke.
