Inspired to Serve

This is an absolute belter from Judy Bailey called “Inspired to Serve”.  It is No 79 in As One Voice: the Next Generation.  Looking ahead, she has another five more songs coming up in the collection in addition to this one and “Call for Mercy” so that is something to look forward to.

I couldn’t mimic the whoop at the end of the verses in Band in a Box, so you’ll have to do that yourselves while singing along or listen to excerpt at As One Voice or her website.  I note that the CD version starts with the bridge, which is not a bad idea.

Verse 1

Come along join the song that is stirring our days
Let the earth touch the sky with extravagant praise
Raise your hands lift them high as you ride the wave – Come on
Woah…God is good

Verse 2

We are one we belong we’re the family of God
We’re a body united together we’re strong
Here to stand in His name, here to make a change – Come on
Woah…God is good yeah

Chorus

Set free and I am on fire
Spirit is lifting me higher
Here we go here we go
Inspired to serve

Verse 3

Come along join the song we are taking this chance
Let us follow the leader the Lord of the dance
We will rise with the challenge loud and strong – Come on
God is good yeah

Chorus

Bridge x2

I’m gonna serve I’m gonna serve
I’m gonna serve the Lord forever

I’m gonna serve I’m gonna serve
I’m gonna serve the Lord forever

I’m gonna serve I’m gonna serve
I’m gonna serve the Lord forever now

Chorus
