I serve with Joy and Gladness on the Altar of the Lord.
I promise day and night Lord to be obedient to the call
Oh, give me Grace to serve Thee
To serve with Joy and Gladness
Oh give me grace to serve Thee on the Altar of the Lord.
 

Refrain:
I serve, I serve, I serve with Joy and Gladness, I serve, I serve, I serve with Joy and Gladness,
O give me grace to serve Thee 
To serve with Joy and Gladness,
O give me grace to serve Thee
On the altar of the Lord
 

I serve with Joy and Gladness, on the Altar of the Lord
Oh guide me, call me, draw me, and clothe Thy Church Mass Server
With righteousness and blessing,
To serve with Joy and Gladness,
With righteousness and blessing
To serve with Joy and Gladness.
 

Refrain

I serve with Joy and Gladness on the Altar of the Lord;
To watch and pray in hope, still to serve till my life’s ends;
To receive the crown of glory
For serving with Joy and Gladness;
To receive the crown of glory
For serving with Joy and Gladness.
 

Refrain
