This song is done on piano on the album, but I've written it down for guitar.  
You can play with a picking pattern and it sounds ok.

Intro: C
C                     Dm               G
I am a servant, I am listening for my name
C                              Dm             F
I sit here waiting, I've been looking at the game
F                                      C
That I've been playing, And I've been staying much the same
Dm                               F           G
When you are lonely, You're the only one to blame.
C                     Dm               G
I am a servant, I am waiting for your call
C                          Dm               F
I've been unfaithful, so I sit here in the hall
F                               C
How can you use me when I have never given all
Dm                              F              G
How can you choose me when you know I quickly fall
         C                    C7
So you feed my soul, and you make me grow,
         F               C
And you let me know you love me.
         C                      C7
And I'm worthless now, but I've made a vow
        F          C
I will only bow before thee
         Dm                Dsus addC#
O please use me, O I'm lonely
C                        Dm           G
I am a servant, getting ready for my part
C                            Dm               F
There's been a change, a rearrangement in my heart
F                                  C
At last I'm learning there's no returning once I start
Dm                         F
To live's a privelage, To love is such an art
       F
But I need your help to start.
         Dm         G
O please purify my heart
           F         C
I am your servant.
