Approved For God's Service -2 Timothy 2: 15

Living in this world as God's servant
seeking to please the creator of all
our giving must be total of one's self
nothing less is acceptable for your call

This call is divinely sent from heaven above
the triune God Himself selects His very own
for to serve their master on the highest of high
He who saved them from a heart of stone

The living God who gives His approval
to only those that give Him their best
so they've no need of being ashamed
standing tall truly passing God's test

God has given mortal men His word
the divine inerrant authoritative scriptures
this needs corrective handling throughout
for God's truth is indeed what really cures

Be faithful to the God of wonders
standing firm proving God is true
giving yourself to His perfect will
to worship Him who made you

(2 Timothy 2:15 "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a 
worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.")
