Born To Serve the Lord

B-orn to serve the Lord, 
I-t's every man's duty; 
N-ew dawn ninth of April, 
G-ive God a Sunday glory. 

M-ake yourself always 
A-vailable to obey; 
N-ever let your life go 
A-miss, neither wrong nor astray. 
L-et your faith and love be of one accord; 
O-ffer praise for you were born to serve the Lord.

Bernard, I noticed that you posted this poem in 2017 but I didn't see it then. I think it is a great way to witness for Christ, and I applaud you for publishing it. If you read any of my poems, you will see that I too acknowledge the Lord and my love for Him. I believe this is a great way to share the Gospel with some who may never hear it otherwise. Thank you, sir
