Serving the Father
by Barbara Philbrook

Would you like each new day to be filled with delight,
from the early dawn to late in the night?

Dedicate you life to serving our Father above,
I guarantee something will happen you'll just love.

Everyday will hold and excitement never known before,
and you'll find your talents increase more and more.

Your heart will be bursting with utter joy,
as the gifts God gave you He starts to employ.

You'll feel love greater than ever before expressed,
and you'll be run over with happiness.

You begin to recognize a glow in others,
knowing instinctively they are Christian Brothers.

You'll experience an ache deep in your heart,
as you reach out to others who are drifting apart.

Instinctively you'll know exactly what to say,
when to expound and when to silently pray.

We each have a part we can do,
nothing else will bring as much satisfaction to you.

Come on my friend join in God's service today,
time is growing short soon we'll be going home to stay.
