Lord, we come with hearts aflame, Seeking service in thy name; All our youth and strength are thine, Given to help thy work divine; All our love and faith we bring, They are thine, O heavenly King.

Verse 2

Lord of hosts, we ask thine aid, Keep us ever unafraid; Hold us loyal, hold us true To the task we have to do; Lead us on to victory, We shall triumph praising thee.

Verse 3

Lord of all, we take our stand, Giving help at thy command; Eager, joyful, blithe, and strong, Thrilled with love and filled with song; Lord, we come with hearts aflame, Seeking service in thy name.
