Fire-starter Hymn Meditation

Justin Baker • April 29, 2025

Today's hymn meditation is in the service of the king. It was written by Bentley D. Ackley and Alfred H. Ackley.

I encourage you to look at the words and listen to the music and let it be a blessing to you.


In the Service of the King

I am happy in the service of the King,

I am happy, O so happy;

I have peace and joy that nothing else can bring,

In the service of the King.


Refrain:

In the service of the King

Ev'ry talent I will bring;

I have peace and joy and blessing

In the service of the King.


2

 I am happy in the service of the King,

I am happy, O so happy;

Through the sunshine and the shadow I can sing,

In the service of the King. [Refrain]


3

 I am happy in the service of the King,

I am happy, O so happy;

To His guiding hand forever I will cling,

In the service of the King. [Refrain]


4

I am happy in the service of the King,

I am happy, O so happy;

All that I possess to Him I gladly bring,

In the service of the King. [Refrain]
