what church should mean to us
the followers of Jesus
doing our master’s work
going as he commanded
baptizing the people
changing their lives in believing
making them into disciples
by our witness
our action in the world
going from sheep to shepherds
heeding his loving word
to the ends of the earth
as long as this age lasts
while we have breath sharing
the love of God for all
following Jesus
the Son of God
walking with him
all the days of our lives
