we are to use our gifts, our calling


We cannot be timid, we must be bold,
we have been gifted by God;
We are to use our gifts, our calling,
for the healing of the world.

The world will seek to hurt us, to harm us,
we know that, that is why we are so timid;
but we must leave our prisons, our comfort,
to fulfill our heavenly Father’s call.

We cannot be timid, we must be bold,
we have been gifted by God;
We are to use our gifts, our calling
for the healing of the world.
