126. Service for the King

1 In service for the King of kings,
We gladly take our stand,
We fight the fight of faith each day,
We move at His command;
The task which He may bid us do,
Shall have our loving care,
In spite of fears that oft beset,
For Him we’ll do and dare.

Refrain:
Service! Service!
Service for the King,
Our time we give,
For Him we live,
Love’s tribute now we bring.
Service! Service!
This our song shall be,
At His command
To take our stand,
And serve Him faithfully.

2 In service for the King of kings,
Ambassadors are we,
Beseeching all men ev’rywhere,
From sin to be set free,
That they may also know the joy
Such service always brings,
And give their time in service true
To Christ the King of kings. [Refrain]

3 In service for the King of kings,
With shield and armour bright,
With breastplate which o dart can pierce,
And spirit’s sword of might,
Let all the hosts of sin combine
Our plans to overthrow,
With pow’r divine at our command,
We’ll conquer ev’ry foe. [Refrain]
