I've Come To Serve

Words and music by Ray Boltz

The disciples were assembled
In the upper room
They didn't know that Jesus
Would be leaving very soon
They talked about His kingdom
As they readied for the feast
Who would be the greatest
And who would be the least

One said, If there's a greatest,
I hope I'm the one
Others talked of miracles
That they had seen or done
No one noticed Jesus
As He rose up from His seat
Until He knelt before them
And began to wash their feet

CHORUS:
I've come to serve you
I've come to serve you
And if you know my Father's love
The way you say you do
Then you will serve each other too

I wish I could have been there
To see the look on each man's face
A single act of service
Puts us all back in out place
For though we're called to minister
And do miracles in His name
Remember when you're sent by Him
The reason that He came

CHORUS (repeat)

Yes, you, should serve each other too
