Lord, Give Us Strength For Your Work
Lord, give us strength* for Your work of kingdom-advancement
Allow our service to thrive by Your Spirit’s empowerment
Help us populate heaven with our earnest commitment
While You let us enjoy Your salvation-settlement.
Lord, give us strength for Your work of soulwinning endeavor
Allow our compassion for the lost to prevail with Your love’s fervor
Help us share Your Gospel for others to receive eternal life’s favor
While You let us live as a victor having Your grace to savor.
Lord, give us strength for Your work of life-building mission
Allow our faith to increase as we trust You for sinners’ transformation
Help us do our part and role in the Great Commission’s realization
While You let us give our best and utmost contribution.
Lord, give us strength for Your work of ministry-effectiveness
Allow our church involvement to flourish through Your might’s fullness

While You let us surrender to Your will toward Christ-likeness we’re anticipating.
*Revelation 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
