we are the workers, the wheat – v6

We come into this space
consecrated for God’s purpose;
We are fed, we grow,
grounded in the waters
fed by the sun, the soil
readying for the harvest
of the Kingdom, of God.

We are the wheat,
we are the workers,
serving the Kingdom;
We share Christ’s message,
His light, His love, His hope,
Gathering others in
out in the world

We are the workers,
we are the wheat,
Sowing seeds, fruit
heads ready for harvest,
the ripe fields yearning,
our oil lamps lit
waiting for God.

We are the workers,
we are the wheat,
Sitting in the fields,
growing where we are planted
learning, serving;
Ready for the harvest;
waiting for our Lord.

sitting in the fields
the interior tin wall of
Stetson Memorial United Methodist Church
are shafts of wheat;
the crown molding top of the walls
are the heads of the wheat.
