a willing servant – v3

we see these people
those who have gone before us
just as flawed as we are;
we are each given free will
we are not forced to follow
to submit our will to God

Rebekah chooses, Mary chooses
all the faithful choose
to follow God, to follow Christ
to live submission
all of our lives

a willing servant
giving ourselves over
into the hand of God;
the same question to us
will we go, will we follow
will we choose
to be a servant of God.
