READY TO SERVE

(To the tune of “Will your anchor hold…”)

Lord, the years have passed and this day has come,

So we thank you for all you’ve taught and done;

Now we’re here to go where’er you send,

Yes, we’re ready to serve you till the end.

Arm us with your full armor, Lord,

With strength to trust and defend your word;

Teach us everyday your will to do,

Help us serve and honor only you.

Where you put us, Lord, we will stay and pray,

And every command we will obey;

We will gladly do every task you give,

And for you, for you alone, we will live.

On this very day, at this very hour,

We claim the promise of your pow’r

From the desert plains to the hills above,

We’ll proclaim your name and declare your love.
