Not on Shifting Sand – v4


Our lives, living the call of the Lord
Active, living, out in the world
acting, not merely having faith
stored up inside the walls of the holy places
more than what we believe, sitting,
being righteous in doing the work of the Lord

Finding our holy places, out in the world
Standing on Christ, on his foundation
the firm rock, the Savior
not on shifting sand, on ourselves
trying to be faithful, to live as He would
to the extent we know it, to be guided
by the Spirit, ever walking, in the way of Christ
