In living in the Master’s house,
we grow, or hopefully so,
perfecting ourselves, in our walk
finding our place, our way
our niche in the kingdom,
ways of living, humbly, simply;
spending time in fellowship,
in worship, and in service.
Growing in faith, recognizing
the gifts of the father, the son,
and the gifts we have
to share with the world.
