We Work and Serve the Lord

This was the closing prayer poem from my sermon Honor and Respect: Two Attitudes Towards Authorities. April 21, 2024. First Chinese Baptist Church, Walnut, California.


We Work and Serve the Lord

At home, or work, or school

We strive to do our best

We work and serve the Lord

With honor and respect

And those who he gives charge

To counsel or command

We work and serve the Lord

For all flows from his hands

With Christ, our light, our guide

Our eyes fixed on the cross

We work and serve the Lord

For he has won our hearts

It is our joy to worship

Our life, an offering

We work and serve the Lord

We work and serve the King
