Indentured Servants

Freed from the world
exchanging masters
choosing to submit
as he did in Gethsemane

Indentured servants
yoked to our brother
following Christ
from death to new life

Serving together
bound to one another
using gifts as one
one body of Christ

Each with talents
to raise up our neighbors
together serving
to carry his light

One message, one purpose
all of us together
yoked with one another
to be his hands and feet

Reaching further
in working together
being salt of the earth
and a light to the nations
