The Hymnal for Boys and Girls ‎#53

53. Lord, We Come with Hearts Aflame

1 Lord, we come with hearts aflame,
Seeking service in thy name;
All our youth and strength are thine,
Given to help thy work divine;
all our love and faith we bring,
They are thine, O heav'nly King.

2 Lord of hosts, we ask thine aid,
keep us ever unafraid;
Hold us loyal, hold us true
To the task we have to do;
Lead us on to victory,
We shall triumph praising thee.

3 Lord of all, we take our stand,
Giving help at thy command;
Eager, joyful, blithe and strong,
Thrilled with love and filled with song;
Lord, we come with hearts aflame,
Seeking service in thy name.

Amen.
