TO KNOW IS TO SERVE

There are a lot of needs

Many people just above the poverty

We know those close to the line

Still, we look out for the damaged

Tends to their needs, gives them council

This is where we have to be

Jesus said to go to the fringes

Carry on without complaint

And we can do much more

Work many hours, almost tirelessly

Love our work, and would like to serve more

Would be happy with a few volunteers

Wouldn’t ask for anything more,

Isn’t that the way of true saints

They show up and serve

Doing all they can

Then look for even more to do

Quietly charting their course

Never waving a flag or

Looking for recognition

We are like that

The One who counts knows

He is the one we please and

He gives us the strength

People are grateful for us

We are grateful for Him
