we must be the change
a prayerful reminding
binding us in worship
living out the dreams
of Martin, of our elders.
we must be the change
the hopes of our people
the change we want to see
no exceptions, no dividing walls.
everyone, anyone, welcome
part of one circle
our nation, our family,
one nation under God.

what is worship
our response to God's goodness
deep down within us
gifts of our hearts
flowing like oil, like water
on the lives of others
out into the world;
gathering as believers
worshipping God as one
rising from our beings
from the well of our souls.

I'm sorry you stayed
I'm sorry you stayed
in the face of #injustice;
I'm sorry you were #silent
when #evil took voice;
I'm sorry you stayed
when you knew what it cost them
stripped of what they knew
their place, their #life.
I'm sorry you were #silent
when #evil took voice;

Staggering numbers
new cases, new #deaths
100,000 #Americans #dead.
Numbers numbing
so many lives lost;
restrictions rolled back,
what will be the true #cost?
No new normal

a moment of encouragement
a moment of encouragement
a moment of hope
feeling a calling
to share the good news.
uncertainty, helplessness
weighing us down
needing hope, a message,
grounding somehow.

a word of hope - v2
We can share
a word of hope
light piercing the darkness,
a message of healing;
God is present with us
in the midst of the storm.
We have assurance
one promise in Jesus
we can be certain
of the love of the Father;
God is right beside us
in the midst of the storm.

communing with our Creator
finding space for God;

translucent leaves
after the snowfall, melt,
phantoms of autumn
translucent leaves
in the wet spring woods
phantoms of autumn
translucent leaves
in the wet spring woods
translucent leaves
almost transparent
clinging to the branches
before the buds burst
almost transparent
clinging to the branches
before the buds burst

a word of hope
a word of hope
to raise up the morning
to offer peace
in the midst of dis-ease
a word of hope
light in this darkness
to put oil on the waters
calm in the storms

gather the other sheep
light, love, a future
a good, good shepherd
offering love
to the sheep, the others
gather the other sheep
those who are still lost
enter into the gate
increase His kingdom, His flock
follow the way of the Savior
the Son of our Father
increase His kingdom, His flock
follow the way of the Savior
the Son of our Father
oh gather the other sheep
to the ends of the earth
to the ends of the earth

calm their storms - v2
calm their storms, their disquiet,
their chaos, their struggles;
spread oil on the waters
offer them faith, comfort
hope for tomorrow
bring them love
of God, of the Father;
share your trust
in God's promise,
in the return of Jesus

fear and uncertainty
fear and uncertainty
at this time, in this moment
in the midst of the pandemic
no past, no future,
frozen in this present
quarantined, unsure
a time of indecision
unease in our spirits
in our homes, our nation.

a whisper, a word - v2
did you hear the rumor
a whisper, a word,
a breath of condemnation
an epithet spit
today's new scarlet letter
"truth" shared, hushed,
speaking a curse,
a diagnosis, gossip,
carrying the mark
of the coronavirus.
