1 We pledge our all in service to the master.
We'll give to Him our best in every way.
The road is hard Lord, keep us from disaster.
And guide our feet, lest we should go astray.
O thank you Lord, for the many ways that you can bless.
And calm our hearts when life seems all "up hill".
Keep us forever in the path of righteousness.
Give us the faith we need to do your precious will.
2 Too many hearts don't know your love and eminence.
Many the naked, hungry suff'ring soul.
O make us vessels of your great omnipotence
To show them that Your power can make them whole.
Our world is full of pain and tribulation.
Satan is there to quickly take control.
But Lord with You we'll conquer ev'ry opposition.
Teach us to let Your Holy Spirit flood each soul.
3 And then one day this rugged journey's end will come.
We'll join the saints who labored long ago.
We'll have to stand before You in Your kingdom,
There to be judged for deeds done here belo'.
O Gracious Lord, forgive the times that we did err
So that the record will be white as sno'
And may we hear You say: "My children enter"
Where we shall dwell with Thee forever mo'.
Amen.
