We gather in this place today
To hear a word we need;
From Jesus’ teaching we gain strength;
We listen. We take heed.
We come with open hearts and minds
To hear a word we need;
To sing of hope; to pray for peace,
For loving is our creed.
We come to lift our spirits high;
To hear a word we need
To help enrich the lives we live;
And then in faith proceed.
We come concerned about our world,
To hear a word we need
To prompt us work for equity;
Stand up for those who bleed.
We gather in this place today
To hear a word we need
To stir us into love and care,
And go where Christ will lead.
