How Does It Make You Feel?

1. How does it make you feel

when you preach and teach with zeal,

When you know you’ve done your part

to reach an honest heart?

Knowing you’ve done your best;

then our God will do the rest.

Honest hearts he surely knows—

all those to him disposed.

2. How does it make you feel

when the words you speak appeal

To the ones whose heart is right

for everlasting life?

Some people turn away,

others might be led astray.

Still we’re glad to bear his name

and witness just the same.

3. How does it make you feel,

knowing God’s support is real,

And that he’s entrusted you

to do the work we do?

Proudly we preach and teach,

using bold but gracious speech,

Searching out deserving ones;

this work will soon be done.
