Glowing city lights upon a hill,
A still beacon in the night,
Wondering through orbs of light,
The heights!
The light! The spheres!
The twinkling brilliance for journeyman.
Let all who have ears hear,
The news of God's love
bringing them near,
Leading them into love's scarred hands,
As a light house we stand,
Many shinning, but as one beacon, one light.
Giving the blind sight,
A lighthouse leading ships onward, through the mist of deception,
Dispelling every hurt and misconception,
We are a city leading to redemption's hill,
Where our Lord was killed, yet lives, and gives us this great power,
We are a beckoning tower of glorious light,
Let this love take flight, and flutter into the homeless hearts of the lost
And with redemption's news let us implore
That in darkness you must live no more, no more...
We are pottery. Works of art over pouring with this great love,
Basins ready to wash others' feet,
Instilling life in hearts that forget how to beat,
Let our love be shed in colours of blazing autumn,
Bright burning shades of love in glorious hues,
Like in Matthew it was said:
For I was naked and you clothed me,
I was sick and you visited me,
I was in prison and you came to me.
Now this is true beauty, that no one can deny
Of this kind of love is why our saviour died,
We are twinkling speckled stars leading ships onward,
Unravelled like a scroll is the palm of God's hand
A land of hearts and hills mapped out:
The wrinkles of his palms are roads leading us onward,
guiding on
His cross our compass
leading us to the scarred pools,
on his wrists were souls can bath
Let us lead others--those far away,-
To the bay of his love let them lap up his waters
He is the father, let the children come
Let them see what Christ has done
Across seas so far
Or just across your yard
for the farthest land is a heart away from God
We are his telescope for which the world to view
Vast scope of the galaxies--the embroidered gems of God's robe,
we are a beacon casting open that black orb that is humanities dying eye
we are to shine.
Reaching out: for to make even a finger print
Is grand upon a small heart,
And that is where hand of God starts,
Scars he knows about, he's hand a few,
Tell the world that God died for me and you,
Show them the cross,
for we are basins to wash the feet of the lost
The hand of God to those the world forgot
We are torches,
We are the lips of God,
In the wind we are gentle healing whispers to fragile hearts
Though crushed we are not destroyed
We are the soothing sounds brought by His agonizing shouts
We are to heal the wounded with his wounds
Change the weed into a flower anew
Flouring seeds, a harvest of hearts, we are to reap
We are to sew
To knit together a family of love
The deep wood lines of the cross are our roads
Leading to redemptions, where his arms are open wide.
No storm, no gale, no threat could smother our burning lights,
For water can't put out hears
Each heart to spark another
Each other to lead!
See that city on a hill
See those cities shining bright tonight?
For several burning hearts create a blinding light.
