Suffering for the Gospel

Paul is calling us, pleading with us
to be who we can be, in service to the calling
the Great Commission, whatever the cost
to preach and share and provide testimony
to testify to the saving grace,
the gift of our risen Lord
to walk in the garden once more
to share eternal rest,
in joy and thanksgiving
to suffer for our faith
to share our faith
and be who we claim to be
the last will be first
let me be last
