Not the Religion – v4

Not the religion, not the name we claim,

Christian, follower, disciple, any other label;

Proof of our humanity, our belief in love

in the way we live, in what we do

how we walk on this earth

humble, good to our neighbors,

reaching out to those in need;

No label, no denomination,

no fraction of the whole

nothing to separate us, part of our family,

the whole human race

offered grace by the Creator

in relationship, within the body,

we all find our place
