The
call to ministry, to service
to
rise from our pews, our comfort
Oh,
Give God our hands,
our
feet, our voices, our love
to
be Christ, the Son,
light
burning bright,
overcoming
the darkness
ministers
to the whole world
reflecting
God’s love
In
mission to the earth
to
the peoples of the world
honoring
the Great Commission
the
power in those flames, Pentecost,
the
Spirit alive within
being
the hands of the Creator,
the
feet of the apostles,
the
voice of righteousness
for
all who are in need
For
all who suffer injustice
all
the sinners, estranged from God
in
need of healing, of life reborn
and/o
r to be God’s image
for
all mankind
so
is our call, our calling, deep within each one of us
the
stirring of the Spirit
to
announce, like John before Him
before
the Baptism of Christ
Knowing
too, somehow, deep within
that
the Day of the Lord
that
His Second Coming
the
Day of Judgment, of the New Jerusalem,
is
drawing nigh, that the Kingdom comes
and
is already here
if
we give God our hands
and
joyfully do His will
out
in the world
