The Oil Of Joy

When we're in the Lord's "employ"
We will have the oil of joy
To spur us on through every day
And lift us up in every way.

We can serve Him in our home
Or anyplace where we may roam
With prayer or encouragement
For those whose joy is worn or spent.

When we serve Him we bring light
To offset weariness or blight.
Oh, what privilege we have
To share God's precious, healing salve.

"And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him."
Colossians 3:17 KJV
