The Chorus of Praise ‎#39

39. Serving Jesus

1 There is joy in serving Jesus,
Working for Him day by day,
Toiling in His fertile vineyard,
Or along the King’s highway.

Refrain:
Serving Jesus, serving Jesus,
He is always good to me;
Serving Jesus, serving Jesus,
Till His blessed face I see.

2 There is peace in serving Jesus,
For the storms obey His will;
He’s my Captain in the tempest,
And he whispers, “Peace be still!” [Refrain]

3 There is hope in serving Jesus,
Though dark clouds the sunshine hide,
I can trust His loving promise,
Light shall come at eventide. [Refrain]

4 There’s a crown for serving Jesus,
Waiting in my home above,
I shall lay it down before Him,
‘Tis the jeweled crown of love. [Refrain]
