74. In His Blessed Service

1 There is little sadness,
But a world of gladness,
In the blessed service of the King;
For a Friend is near us,
All day long to cheer us,
In the blessed service of the King.

Refrain:
In his service we will stay
And labor every day,
That golden sheaves at last we all to him may bring;
Till called to joys above,
We’ll labor on in love,
In the blessed service of the King.

2 Of his goodness telling,
We are safely dwelling
In the blessed service of the King;
Seeds of kindness sowing,
All to heaven going,
In the blessed service of the King. [Refrain]

3 Caring not to wander,
Time we’ll never squander,
In the blessed service of the King;
True to him remaining,
We the crown are gaining,
In the blessed service of the King. [Refrain]
