Service Rewards

Silent servants of the night unseen Employed in task of uplifting men Rendering to none evil for evil, send Victory where brokenness had been. Indefatigable humility, inexhaustible kindness Christ-centered love glowing with light Each so blessed alone knows true delight. Rich are the sunsets that overcomes blindness Earth's heroes unsung recorded there Willing hearts and willing hands will give from nothing Awaiting nothing, except the award of the king Rewarded for labor as for each quiet tear Drained from the soul awaken by another's woe Servants now served where God's glory glow. 2 Teach me, Lord, my lips to speak in soft, sweet tones That will not bruise a fellow traveler's wound Give me ears to listen and to hear those who groans Hands to lift a brother who adversity ruined Eyes to find them where in winter's wrath they are strewn Heart to hug them, love to save them, and I All of me in willingness to fight and for your cause to die That in my life your cross shall be lifted shown. O kind Master, and when I am tired and weary let me find Rest in you, and to unthankfulness make me blind.
