Here in the presence of the Lord, here in this

holy place giving Him thanks for all Hes

done, quietly seeking His face. So many times

weve seen His hand guiding each step of the

way. God put us here to take a stand to serve

Him every day.

Refrain: We will serve Him for the rest of our days; we will serve Him with the highest of praise. Well be His witness no matter the cost. Well be His beacon His light to the lost. We will serve the Lord our God, for the rest of our days.

He is the light at break of dawn He is the one true way. He is our strength when hope is gone, He shepherds us when we stray. God

gave to us His only Son, the selfless sacrifice.

How can we pay for all Hes done when Jesus

paid the price?

Let all my thoughts / words and actions, / every step I take / every breath I draw / be directed to the Greater Honor and Glory of God. / Walking in your Glorious Footsteps / and imitating your purity, / your deep humility / your unquestioning obedience / and your boundless charity, / may I / after life of unflinching service and Christ-like sympathy, / merit the favor of being close to you and your Divine Son / for all eternity.

moments you comfort me, fill me with

peace. When my foes threaten, dare, and surround me, youre my strength; youre my light and my shield.
