My duty to Him

Representative Text

1 Just to be faithful in things that are small,
Just to walk steady where others might fall;
Just to be willing if Jesus should call,
This is my duty to Him.

Refrain:
Oh! what a pleasure it is to be true,
Moment by moment my duty to do;
Trusting the Saviour to carry me thro’,
This is my duty to Him.

2 Just to be friendly to those I dislike,
Just to act kindly when others would strike;
Just to keep busy in things that are right,
This is my duty to Him. [Refrain]

3 Just to drive somebody’s darkness away,
Just to make brighter the world of today;
Just to strew flowers along life’s pathway,
This is my duty to Him. [Refrain]

4 Just to let Jesus have perfect control,
Just to know daily His grace makes me whole;
Just to have heavenly peace in my soul,
This is my duty to Him. [Refrain]
