“And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of time. Amen.” -Matthew 28:18-20
Christ, Be Our Light
Longing for light, we wait in darkness
Longing for truth, we turn to You
Make us Your own, Your holy people
Light for the world to see
Christ, be our light
Shine in our hearts, shine through the darkness
Christ, be our light
Shine in Your church gathered today
Longing for peace, our world is troubled
Longing for hope, many despair
Your word alone has pow’r to save us
Make us Your living voice
Longing for food, many are hungry
Longing for water, many still thirst
Make us Your bread, broken for others
Shared until all are fed
Longing for shelter, many are homeless
Longing for warmth, many are cold
Make us Your building, sheltering others
Walls made of living stone
Many the gifts, many the people
Many the hearts that yearn to belong
Let us be servants to one another
Making Your kingdom come
