Give God Our Bodies

Give God our bodies
our hands and our feet
all that we are, nothing held back
our feet, our voices, our love
to be Christ, the Son,
to continue His ministry
ministers to the whole world
reflecting God’s love
in mission to the earth
being the hands of the Creator,
the feet of the apostles,
the voice of righteousness
for all who are in need
Giving God our bodies
overcoming the darkness
light burning bright,
to the peoples of the world
honoring the Great Commission
the power in those flames,
the Spirit alive within as on Pentecost,
to be God’s image, His reflection
for all mankind, for all who suffer injustice
for all the sinners, estranged from God
in need of healing, of life reborn
deep within each one of us
the stirring of the Spirit
calling us to witness, to testify
to announce, like John before Him
before the Baptism of Christ
that the Day of the Lord
is drawing nigh, that the Kingdom comes
and is already here
if we give God our bodies,
our hands and feet, our all,
and joyfully do His will
