Dipping our cups – v2

Dipping our cups
into the living water
breath of the Word
the Spirit abiding, moving,
our cups running over…
 
Dipping our cups
filling them deeply
breathing in the Word
the Spirit of God, guiding,
our cups running over…

There is no such thing as a small thing

Each of us are called to do our part,
We each share a purpose, gifts,
whether we think it is small or large;
There is no such thing as a small thing
in the service of God.
 
In sharing God’s message, His love,
the grace of the Father
His gift sending us His Son;
Each of us is a part of the body,
of the love of God come down.
 
We each can contribute, to lift up,
our neighbors, the strangers,
all of us are called to serve the Lord;
There is no such thing as a small thing
in the service of our God.

Quickly – v8

Quickly, at once, now
motion repeating;
words of power, urgent
without any delay;
urgency in this message
the soon coming of Christ

His work important
no time to waste;
power in the now, this moment,
now handed down to us;
the work of the ages
sharing His gift of grace

Words explosive, seemingly as if
today were the only day to share, to do,
to offer them God’s grace;
needing to share, to shout
needing to hurry, to run
that all would know Christ,
the Son of God today

The incredible gift, grace
an urgent message, present
for the whole world;
fulfillment of scripture
leave everything, to go, to follow
to come to Christ

Quickly, at once, go,
now, this moment;
motion repeating
without any delay, going;
the message of Jesus
coming now, coming today

touch them – 2 – v3

touch them, the others
like Jesus, caring
the hurting
the lepers
the broken
the outcasts
the lost, the others
those we do not see

touch them, the others
the strangers, beside
the lonely
the struggling
all who need mercy
who need comfort
who desperately need
the healing of God

We are each called by Christ – v3

We are each called by the Christ,
our risen Lord and Savior, our Master,
to go, to come, to follow at His calling,
to leave our nets by the seashore
to trust Him with our lives
to become fishers of men.

We each have a unique purpose
specific gifts of the Holy Spirit;
We are each called by Jesus
to come, to follow
to lay down our lives
to become fishers of men.
