A Heart To Serve Poem by Michael P. Johnson

A HEART TO SERVE
Creator God eternal King
Come cleanse my heart of shame
Become my Lord let Truth now sing
To glorify Your name

Create Your purpose in my mind
Teach me to care and love
Restore these eyes self will made blind
To see Your Way above

In Saul You healed his spirit Lord
You gave to him a crown
David became Your awesome sword
To pull the mighty down

In righteousness great deeds were done
Pleasing my God on high
To glorify Your Christ & Son
And show to such as I

Plant deep Your Truth within this child
Let trust and faith increase
That I be truly reconciled
And find eternal peace

Furnish my heart with righteous seed
My cup with Heaven's Wine
Send me equipped others to feed
Revealing Christ divine

This sinful world's condemned to die
Her offspring live in fear
Lord let them now see Satan's lie
By granting grace to hear

Why should the devil have his way?
Why should his ranks still swell?
Cut off his power now today
And cast him into hell..…
