O Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end; Be Thou forever near me, My Master and my Friend; I shall not fear the battle If Thou art by my side, Nor wander from the pathway If Thou wilt be my Guide. |

Oh, let me feel Thee near me; The world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, The tempting sounds I hear; My foes are ever near me, Around me and within; But, Jesus, draw Thou nearer, And shield my soul from sin. |

Oh, let me hear Thee speaking, In accents clear and still, Above the storms of passion, The murmurs of self-will; Oh, speak to reassure me, To hasten, or control; Oh, speak, and make me listen, Thou Guardian of my soul. |

O Jesus, Thou hast promised To all who follow Thee That where Thou art in glory There shall Thy servant be; And Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end; Oh, give me grace to follow, My Master and my Friend. |

Oh, let me see Thy footmarks, And in them plant mine own; My hope to follow duly Is in Thy strength alone. Oh, guide me, call me, draw me, Uphold me to the end; And then to rest receive me, My Savior and my Friend. |

This song is spiritual warfare. I learned this some time ago. Sing it when you are facing spiritual oppression-- especially in the form of anxiety or depression-- and the heaviness just lifts. Something about this song really puts agents to flight. Sing it regularly and really internalize the message; make it a sincere, personal pledge.

Lord, even if the environment strongly holds me to not serve You, this I promised: to serve Thee to the end. Not because i'm good, it's just because Thy mercy and Thy love.

We sang this song in church today, it ministered so strongly that all the sermon was centered on the hymn. Jesus I promise to serve You, help me my Master and Friend. Amen.

What a reassuring song.
Lord you are my master and my friend. All that I have is You.
Even in this trying moment I have no single doubt that You will surely lift me up in victory. You are all that I have.

Thank You Jesus! Thank You Holy Spirit for singing this hymn in my heart. Thank You so much my dear Lord for speaking to me through this hymn and these words. Blessed be Your Holy name O Lord in Jesus name. Amen!

When Jesus comes into our life after conviction and repentance and forgiveness we experience our first love full of hope and trust. From that moment on Satan will try to take it away and undermine it with doubt, pride, temptation and trials. This song addresses all of these. Let's read or sing it often to be aware and keep our first love for Jesus.
