WE HAVE A STORY
We live in a society of increasing anxiety
Where people have lost hope and expectation.
I worry that the church has forgotten
We’ve a story to tell to the nations.
*******************
Isolation and separation have caused despair
People dwell in gloom and endless dark.
We need to hear a song of noonday bright
Caused by faith in a God that offers a glowing spark
************************
The church needs to reclaim a message for all our nations
A world that for too long played the game of power and might
Needs to hear the song we’ve been given
That shatters the sword of evil and reveals the light.
***********************
Fragile hope was born in a forgettable town
Celebrated by those who cared for sheep at night
That song can start in one small church’s voice
But grows to an anthem that shatters all fear and fright.
********************
Whether from one church or many across the world
We’ve been given a story of hope and healing
We’ve a story to tell to the nations
It waits for the faithful to sing a story of revealing.
