Hireling---
HIRELING---
Lord, I'm a hireling;
O' and I heed your calling;
God I wanna work for you;
Whatever your duties Lord you know I wanna work for you;
Whatever the job Lord I wanna work for you;
Unpaid or paid;
Cleaning toilets or being a maid;
Just short of being a slave;
I just wanna spread the Word;
Share the joy;
And tell the world that you're my Lord;
Lord, I'm just a hireling God I wanna work for you;
I just wanna spread the Word;
Share the joy;
And tell the world that you're my Lord;
Lord, I'm just a hireling God I wanna work for you;
I'll work for you for your wages;
I'll work for you for you are contagious;
And tell the world that you're my Lord;
Lord, I'm just a hireling God I wanna work for you;
When the task are done'
Lord I just want to be yours
