Fitted For Service (Canaan Melodies #22)

The great old holiness writer Lelia Morris (famous for writing "Holiness Unto the Lord") penned this marvelous song about always being ready to serve or go where God sends.

LYRICS:

1 Fitted for service, I would ever be
Ready to follow where Thou leadest me
Up the bleak mountain, if the lost be there
Ready to labor any time or where

Refrain:
Fitted for service, I would ever be
Give me a heart like Thine
Emptied of self, from ev’ry sin set free
Filled with Thy pow’r divine

2 Fitted for service, Christ’s embassador
If he shall send me to the lands afar
Pointing the way to Jesus crucified
Bringing unto Him souls for whom He died

3 Fitted for service, cleansed and Spirit-filled
Sanctified wholly, as the Lord hath willed
Scattering sunshine all along life’s way
Being a blessing to someone ev’ry day
