Verse 1

If you wish to serve as God wills,

know the kind of men He detests,

know the kind of people He loves,

what kind can serve Him, what kind God perfects.

Chorus

When you’ve truly known God’s work

and experienced His words,

you’ll be qualified to serve,

you’ll be qualified to serve.

Verse 2

You should know the aims of God’s work,

the work that God does at present.

Then through the guidance of God’s words,

you must enter in, accept God’s commission.

Chorus

When you’ve truly known God’s work

and experienced His words,

you’ll be qualified to serve,

you’ll be qualified to serve.

Verse 3

And it is when you’re serving Him,

He opens your spiritual eyes.

You’ll have more knowledge of His work,

which you will then so clearly recognize.

Chorus

When you’ve truly known God’s work

and experienced His words,

you’ll be qualified to serve,

you’ll be qualified to serve.

Bridge

When you enter the reality,

you’ll go through things more real and profound.

All who’ve had this experience

can walk among churches and provide

to other brothers and sisters.

So you can learn from each other

and make up for your own lacks,

your knowledge in spirit will grow richer.

Verse 4

Only when this effect’s achieved,

you are able to serve as God wills,

and you’ll be made perfect by Him

during the course of your service to Him.

Chorus

When you’ve truly known God’s work

and experienced His words,

you’ll be qualified to serve,

you’ll be qualified to serve.
