Analysis of Service
S is for the Sanctity in which we serve
Dedicated to our father and is always heard
E is for the Eagerness to help all mankind
So one day all of us, He will call ‘mine’
R is for the Reverent way we obey
For with Him we hope to be someday
V is for the Victory when we choose the right
Which is pleasing in His sight
I is for the Interest we have in each other
Helping to serve our sisters & brothers
C is for the Charity of Christ in our heart
So when we obey – we are doing our part
E is for the Effort that we so freely give
To help others, with their lives to live
Put it altogether, and you will see
That service done for others helps you & me
