We are each called
in our time, this place
in our own way,
as we have been gifted
to serve our neighbors
to the glory of the Lord
Speaking, as John did
in Jesus’ name,
going into the wilderness
into the courts of power
speaking what is right
in the eyes of the Lord
Saving by water, by the Spirit
by the grace of God
given, not earned
by the works of our hearts;
but by the love of God alone
