encountering the world – v2

we become the church, one body
touching other lives
some joyous, some grumpy,
encountering the world
as we are, as it is,
not as we would wish it to be
as it is now.

we become Christ’s hands and feet
from this place of healing
this strong foundation, the church.
it is from this hallowed ground
that we go forth to serve
sharing Your message
in Your holy name.
