The same God, blessing each of us
with singular gifts, for us to use, to share
for the common good, as we are gifted
spiritual gifts, for the community
for the ministry, the continuation
the work begun by the savior, the apostles
transformed that Pentecost ‘morn
Serving as we are called, as we are able
each part of the body,
essential for the work,
being the hands, the feet
the love of God
the same God,
creator, savior and spirit
triune, from creation to the end of the age
with us always
