We repair the breach

Our witness, our lives
walking with our neighbors
loving our brothers
even the strangers

The choices we make
how we live
we repair the breach
between God and man

Yes there is grace
oh how we need this
God’s unending love
lifting us up

But Christ came to fulfill
the law and the prophets
not to tear down
but to lift us up

We are to shine
to be light in the darkness
humble in our walk
as the salt of the earth

Shining our light
up on the lampstand
witnesses to God’s grace
yoked with the Christ
