A Wise Servant

 

 

A wise servant loves his Master
Above every other love;
He knows true wisdom and knowledge
Come from the Father above.
He delights in serving his Lord—
Doing all He’d have him do,
And he knows he has God’s favor…
Amazing grace sees him through.

A wise servant seeks to obey
The voice of his Mighty King;
As he walks in the righteous way,
His heart is lifted to sing.
He knows he’s been bought with a price
And is no longer his own—
Purchased by the blood of the Lamb…
The greatest transaction known!

A wise servant is so grateful
That he gladly gives his all;
He watches and prays every day—
Ready to heed His Lord’s call.
He knows he can’t serve two masters,
He can only serve the One,
And his heart belongs to Jesus…
God’s only begotten Son.

 

“The king’s favour is toward a wise servant:
but his wrath is against him that causeth shame.”
“Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.”
Jesus said: “No man can serve two masters...
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.”
(Pr 14:35; 1 Cor 7:23; Lk 16:13)
