At
the beginning,
starting
in Jerusalem;
The
first church, together
one
body, one journey in Christ
A
life together,
in
study, in worship;
Eating
the common meal
sharing
the prayers as one
Pooling
their resources
that
none would know want;
Selling
what they owned
worship
together in love
Focused
on our Savior
the
disciples gathered together;
One
body, one journey,
doing
the Master’s work
