‘Serve the Lord with gladness’
In our works and ways,
Come before His presence
With our songs of praise;
Unto Him our maker
We would pledge anew
Life’s supreme devotion
To service true.
‘Serve Him with gladness.’
Enter His courts with song;
To our Creator
True praises belong;
Great is His mercy,
Wonderful is His name,
We gladly serve Him,
His great love proclaim.

‘Serve the Lord with gladness’
Thankful all the while
For His tender mercies,
For His loving smile:
Blessed truth enduring,
Always just the same,
We will serve with gladness
And praise His name.
‘Serve Him with gladness.’
Enter His courts with song;
To our Creator
True praises belong;
Great is His mercy,
Wonderful is His name,
We gladly serve Him,
His great love proclaim.

‘Serve the Lord with gladness’
This shall be our theme,
As we walk together
In His love supreme:
Listening, ever listening
For the still small voice,
His sweet will so precious
Will be our choice.
‘Serve Him with gladness.’
Enter His courts with song;
To our Creator
True praises belong;
Great is His mercy,
Wonderful is His name,
We gladly serve Him,
His great love proclaim.
