A sentry at our post – v2

We are called for a purpose,
We are part of the Body,
We are a sentry at our post,
Ready for the Enemy,
To defeat His attacks,
To protect the Body…
 
What if we are not at our post,
When we are broken,
When we are absent,
When we walk away
from the Body, the Church,
Leaving the Body unprotected…
 
An essential part of the Body
Is missing, a post is empty,
Attacks of the Enemy can enter
A hole where we are meant to be
In the Body, in God’s kingdom,
In God’s plan for humanity…
 
We must turn, we must return,
We must take our battle station,
We must fill our place on the wall,
To stand with the others, to defend,
To stand in the gap ready, protected,
To protect Christ’s Body, the Church…
