1. Thou dost call to service,—
Jesus, we will heed;
Lead Thou, we will follow,
Faith begetting deed.
Fill us with Thy spirit,
With Thy love and might,
Let our whole endeavor
Be for truth and right.
Refrain:
We are Thy disciples,
Loyal we would be,
Keep us in our service,
Master, true to Thee.
2. Heavy hearts around us
Need our help and cheer,
Service calls are sounding,—
Make us quick to hear.
Grant us clearer vision
Helpful work to see,
Readiness to answer,
“Here am I, send me!”
3. Forward into service
Joyously we go,
Knowing Thou wilt surely
Needed strength bestow.
Using ev’ry talent
In Thy blest employ,
May we find in service
Fulness of Thy joy.
