We live to serve the Master,
As still we hear the call,
We spend the life he gives us
In doing good to all;
We take his hope and comfort
To all who sadly grieve,
We seek the poor and weary.
Their burdens to relieve.
We live to serve him here.
With ready hearts and spirits true,
With ready hearts and spirits true;
Oh, we live to serve the Master,
With a glorious rest in view.
We live to seek and rescue
The many gone astray,
We show them what is better,
The true and living way;
We live that all in darkness
The gospel light may see.
That all in sin and bondage
May yet be glad and free.
We live to serve him here.
With ready hearts and spirits true,
With ready hearts and spirits true;
Oh, we live to serve the Master,
With a glorious rest in view.
We live that all around us
May know the Friend above,
We bear the joyful tidings
Of saving grace and love;
We sow beside all waters
The precious gospel word,
'Tis thus, in love and gladness,
We live to serve the Lord.
We live to serve him here.
With ready hearts and spirits true,
With ready hearts and spirits true;
Oh, we live to serve the Master,
With a glorious rest in view.
