Obituary For Mr. Michael T. Matchett

A charge to keep I have, A God to glorify, A never-dying soul to save, and fit it for the sky. To serve the present age, my calling to fulfill: Oh, may it all my pow’rs engage to do my Master’s will! Arm me with jealous care, As in Thy sight to live; And O Thy servant, Lord, prepare A strict account to give Help me to watch and pray, And on Thyself rely, Assured, if I my trust betray, I shall forever die.

On Sunday, December 17, 2023, His master replied, “Well Done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’
