Do The Work

 

Jesus was faithful.  He came to earth to accomplish the work of His Father.  Jesus “set His face” to be faithful  to the goal.  He did what He came to do and opened the path to salvation for all who would believe and come to Him.   

The Work 

As Jesus did on earth,

Let me accomplish my task and fulfill my worth.
O Lord, set my face
To run the race.
With endurance, set my pace.
Let me honor God along my walk
And glorify Him by my talk.
As with every task I complete,
Let it be the best to reflect both You and me.  
Establish my worth
As Jesus did on earth.
Set my pace.
With determination, set my face;
Loving, sharing among every race.
Daily, create in me joy and mirth
As I trudge along this earth.
Ever, gladly, will I run the race,
Though undeserving of God’s established grace.
