Like Paul, we yearn
we struggle for meaning
trying to be righteous
not in the abstract
not in writings
but in the truth
the grace God has given
The one true offering
holy and eternal
the Son here dying
that we may live anew
Born of the Spirit
by the Spirit going
a righteousness given
by the blood on the cross
The sacrifice complete
our change eternal
responding humbly
to act as servants
To go as commissioned
faithfully going
sharing our gifts freely
so all may know Jesus
the restorer of our souls
