Help Me Serve Others



Oh dear lord hear my plea
Help me serve others so in turn
I serve thee
Help me to know
What you want me to do
That I might know I always serve you
Help me to see the needs of others
Help me to serve
My sisters and brothers
Help me to do that which is right
To love and serve thee
My goals kept in sight
