not silent in our waiting – v2

God is not subtle
we are to be busy
to be ready, our oil full,
our lamp burning, awake
We are to be sharing
out in the fields,
prepared for His coming
doing the work of Christ

We are not to be silent
standing by complacent
we are not to be silent
in our waiting for the Lord
Speak out against injustice
joining the burgeoning throng;
joined with the martyrs
in the Servant Song

I’m dancing the song of my savior God


I have been graced by my savior
I have been touched by the hand of God
I sing with the angels, with the chorus
I’m dancing the song of my savior God
feeling God’s hand upon me
worship the center of my life
ever to draw nearer
to the one who saves me
to the One who can to earth
who wore the thorny crown

to know yourself already risen



liberated from the earth
our mortal tomb, the journey
to know yourself already risen
is to truly be alive
liberated from our struggles
our earthly walk, this journey
able to walk freely
knowing our home in heaven

may we be filled

may we be filled
as was Elizabeth
by your Holy Spirit
able to sense you with us
even unborn in the womb
may we be filled
as was Mary
by peace in your calling
submitting our will to your hands
humble in our living
