we are the stones of the temple – v2

we are not separate islands

individual stones to stand independent

we are the stones of the temple

living stones of this earth

which are gathered together

we are the living stones

our lives from the dust, gathered,

molded by God’s loving hands

we are the ones gathered, picked up,

joined together in this sacred time

we live, have life, within the circle,

this hour of prayer, this calling,

to love, to care for one another

joined with the cornerstone of Christ

we are the stones of the temple

making a living home for God

Bringing Word – v3

They are working in God’s vineyard

Bringing Word, God’s Word

a Good News, a Gospel

to the masses, the sheep of their flock

like water in the desert

week on week,

synthesized meaning in small bites

of the ancient text

knitted with their history

and ours too we know

so we can comprehend

understand the deeper meanings

lessons even still, for our lives

the voices woven – v8

the voices are woven

as waves crashing,

swooping, falling

upon the shore, the bank,

rising and falling

seconds apart

a staggered choir

a capricious harmony

stronger together

woven into one voice

one in the fabric of love.

Never Give Up – v2

The race of life too important

all human flesh passes away

the goal of paradise

ours if we never give up

staying focused on the Christ

Stripped to the bare essentials

the race, the path before us,

running with Christ

His Spirit within us

let Him set the pace

God knows the path

the way that is set before us

let us be Christ’s feet

the race of life too important

in Christ is our victory.

The Lord’s Prayer – 2 – v2

Father, You alone are God

Come to this earth to claim us;

Forgive me my sins as

I will forgive all others the same.

Save me from temptation,

from the Evil One,

for this all I pray

Thy kingdom come,
thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
forever. Amen.

The Lord’s Prayer – v3

the ancient words important

one source, the Christ,

offering a model prayer

to pray to paradise

raising up our petitions

to our Father, to God,

knowing God will answer

our Sovereign, our Lord

Our Father – v2

The prayer Christ taught us,

of the Savior, God incarnate

written in the scriptures

beginning with a name of God

a loving intimate name,

not a cold, aloof God

a judgmental God in heaven

A loving father, real and personal

caring, forgiving,

reaching for us,

for a connection

a living relationship

with our God, our Father,

hallowed be His name
