on I Will Serve Thee

This morning, one of our co-workers shared a very powerful and intimate episode from her life, on how the Lord walked through with her one of the darkest periods in her life. I was truly humbled by His grace and mercy upon this sister's life, and by the peace and love that she chose, and still chooses, to cling onto Christ. At the end of her sharing, she chose to lead us to sing in this old song :

I Will Serve Thee

by Gloria Gaither & William Gaither

 

G                       C              G

I will serve Thee    because I love Thee

G             D               G

You have given life to me

G                   C                     G

I was nothing         before You found me

G            D                 G

You have given life to me

C                           G

Heartaches, broken pieces

G         D           D7         G

Ruined lives are why You died on Calvary

C                                G

Your touch was what I longed for

G            D      D7     G

You have given life to me

Even as the month of Lent* starts, my prayer is for all believers to start contemplating on the last 40 days of our Lord's time on this earth 2000 plus years ago, as He went into Jerusalem knowing full well of the cross He had to bear.

 

May your life be richly blessed as you ponder on the significance of His sacrifice for you and I.
