To Serve the King - Ann97

Queen Esther's story shows me that I can stand for right Elisha taught that angels protect me by my side Like David, I can slay Goliaths in my way Like Deborah, I can lead my friends to Christ I will choose to serve the Lord Like my scripture heroes of old As I learn and grow in faith God will be my strength With every step I take I will choose to serve the Lord Like Moses, I find courage, for God provides a way Like Noah, I will listen to heaven and obey I'll trust the Lord, like Job, and live with love and hope Like Hannah, God will hear me when I pray I will choose to serve the Lord Like my scripture heroes of old As I learn and grow in faith God will be my strength With every step I take I will choose to serve the Lord Caleb was brave Joseph forgave Ruth stayed Daniel prayed Jonah changed I will choose to serve the Lord Like my scripture heroes of old As I learn and grow in faith God will be my strength With every step I take I will choose to serve the Lord God will be my strength (God will be my strength) With every step I take (with every step I take) I will choose to serve the Lord
