I may not have used any rights,
That the Lord has set on my sights;
And not written this in order,
For being the sole beholder.
I would die than anyone turn,
A profit with no right to earn;
In preaching about the Good News,
Which I will spread for all to use.
I brag not with meaningless words,
That is just mainly for the birds;
Rather I am spreading the Good News,
I do so all because I choose.
I have nothing to brag about,
Neither to fear nothing to doubt;
Because I am committed to do,
An obligation to teach you.
How horrible that it would be,
If I did not help you to see;
With the Good News what God has done,
When He sent His begotten Son.
With joy I continue to spread,
As the body of Christ has fed;
While His blood has quenched my thirst,
God ensures I am reimbursed.
I spread the Good News willingly,
And do it quite admiringly;
For waiting will be a reward,
That will be given by the Lord.
It only comes naturally,
That I do very faithfully;
And I am entrusted to do,
To continue to carry through.
