Christie, the King's Servant: A Sequel to "Christie's Old Organ"
Walton, O. F., Mrs.
Christian life -- Juvenile fiction; Conduct of life -- Juvenile fiction
I can say to-day, even as I said then, 'One is my Master, even Christ,'
and I can look forward, humbly but hopefully, to the time when the
golden gates will open to me, and when the Master's promise will be
fulfilled to me, 'Where I am, there shall also My servant be.'
O Jesus Christ, my Master,
I come to Thee to-day;
I ask Thee to direct me
In all I do or say:
I want to keep my promise
To be Thy servant true,
I come to Thee for orders;
Dear Lord, what shall I do?
I want a heart not heeding
What others think or say;
I want a humble spirit,
To listen and obey.
To serve Thee without ceasing,
'Tis but a little while,--
My strength, the Master's promise,
My joy, the Master's smile.
A.C.W.
