The Servant

Jesus, Lord, You came to earth

God s Name to glorify;

Each loving deed, each gentle touch

My soul shall magnify.

As I lift my voice to sing Your praise,

May You inspire Your Word;

And as to help my hand I raise,

May You reach out, dear Lord.

O come, my Lord, and stay with me,

Come, heal and help and bless!

I long to serve You perfectly-

Your Hands in mine caress.

You sing when I am silent, Lord-

I ll wait for You to start;

I pray You, go before me, now,

And take the foremost part.

I ll speak the words You give me, Lord,

And where You go I ll follow;

O Lord, rise up and be the Light,

And let me be Your shadow.
