In the Gathered Flames

A piece of Christ’s love
the beating Spirit
the fire of Pentecost
in the gathered flames

A spark of God’s grace
burning before us
quickening our hearts
as each name was read

Our saints glowing
burning brightly
the light of their faith
shining on us

Gathered together
here, in worship
coming before God
in this holy place

All of us part
of the single flame
the love of God here
shining in our midst

The fire burning brighter
when we share with our neighbors
the love of God with others
like seeds scattered richly
into fertile soil
