Seeking (Vol 3 No 69)
As we contemplate our mission,
As we look beyond today,
As we try to live our vision,
Follow Jesus in his way –
Sometimes he was strong, assertive,
Always merciful and kind;
He was gen’rous and inclusive
He has shown us ‘Love Defined’.
When we follow Jesus’ leading,
As we live his life once more,
We can hear his words of healing;
We can see his touch restore;
With compassion and with caring
We can bring God’s love to view;
By our comfort, burden sharing
We assist in healing too.
When we strive to nurture freedom,
Freedom from abuse and fear,
We may find we are not welcome;
Batt’ling evil is severe.
Jesus was a God revealer;
Join his freeing work of care;
Justice needs a bold presenter,
Follow Jesus if we dare.
Strong compassion is life giving;
Life abundant is God’s will;
We enhance life of the living
As we serve with grace and skill.
Jesus’ life, we seek to follow –
Giving fully, giving free;
Share God’s work today, tomorrow;
Show what love can do and be
