standing in the gate on earth
Why not today
to laud our Savior’s birth
Sharing the joy of Jesus
Christ coming to earth
worshiping ever
the presence of our God
Not waiting for the future
eternity in heaven
sharing richly now
the good news of our Brother
come to save the earth

changing the spelling from “worshipped” to “worshiped”,

“changing the wind”
Based on the comments of Jim Wallis on
Speaking of Faith, November 29, 2007
He was talking about whether to change politicians
or change the wind, to change the public opinion
which guides politics. He used the example
of President Johnson’s statement to the
Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. that it would
take 5 years for a voting rights bill but
it actually took 5 months to pass the Voting Rights Act,
after the March in Selma.
