I Got To Serve The Master!

He ran throughout the streets
To tell where he had been;
“I got to serve the Master!”
He shouted to his friends.

“Today up on the mountain
I gave up my fish and bread;
And Jesus performed a miracle —
Five thousand people were fed!”

He grinned from ear to ear,
And danced around with joy;
“I got to serve the Master!”
Sang the jubilant little boy.

For even the Son of Man did not come
to be served, but to serve, and to give
His life a ransom for many. (Mark 10:45)

Servant’s Song

I’m glad to be a servant,
A servant of the King;
Doing His good pleasure
Is joy and strength to me.

I want to be a servant
To all in life I meet;
To humbly bow like Jesus
And wash another’s feet.

I know no greater privilege
Than to serve my Lord and King;
And give Him all the glory
For what He does through me.
