The unobservant servant

Wandered vainly through the day;

She stopped to smell the roses,

But she never stopped to pray

For Your direction.

The unobservant servant

Wandered deafly through Your word;

She read and read and filled her head,

And yet she never heard

Your directions.

The unobservant servant

Wandered blindly through the day;

She looked and looked, but missed the boat...

She never saw the way

To do Your will.

The unobservant servant

Wandered mutely through the day;

A dozen people crossed her path

And she never stopped to say

A word about You.
