AS
A FIRE IS MEANT FOR BURNING
1.
As a fire is meant for burning
With a bright and warming flame,
So the
church is meant for mission,
Giving glory to God's name.
Not to preach
our creeds or customs,
but to build a bridge of care,
We join hands across
the nations,
Finding neighbors ev'rywhere.
2.
We are learners; we are teachers;
We are pilgrims on the way.
We are seekers;
we are givers;
We are vessels made of clay.
By our gentle, loving actions,
We would show that Christ is light.
In a humble, list'ning Spirit,
We
would live to God's delight.
3.
As a green bud in the springtime
Is a sign of life renewed,
So may we
be signs of oneness
'Mid earth's peoples, many hued.
As a rainbow lights
the heavens
When a storm is past and gone,
May our lives reflect the radiance
Of God's new and glorious dawn.
