Offer Joyful Service – v2

Like children, unburdened

offer joyful service

in praise of the Lord

giving freely, without limits

responding to, never earning

the gift of grace

No longer servants, instead children

bringing our works as gifts

motivated by God’s love, agape

joyfully serving

offering ourselves

gifts freely given;

gifts beyond measure

already received
