The Lord's Servant Lyrics
Carolyn Arends
Mary could not believe what was happening An angel was standing there plain as could be Speaking to her of impossible things See Mary was young, she was humble and poor And she could not imagine what she could be used for But the Spirit within her just started to soar She said "I am the Lord's Servant".
Was her heart beating wild When she said she'd obey And did Gabriel smile As if to say ...
If you are willing Then our God is able To send His salvation Down to a stable And love can be born And peace can be yours If you'll be the Lord's servant
Now Joseph was loyal and honest and true When he heard about Mary his heart broke in two And so he determined what he had to do But when he fell asleep it was not long before An angel said "Joseph, you need to know more" And it was a dream that he could not ignore Because he was the Lord's servant
Did he jump out of bed Did he run to her side Did the words Gabriel said Race through his mind
If you are willing ...
It's been 2000 years And yet you play a part The Messiah still comes If there's room in your heart
And if you are willing Then our God is able He sent His salvation Down to a stable So love can be born And peace can be yours If you'll be the Lord's servant Oh will you be the Lord's servant?
