The Whole Mission of the Church

Mission Song
Words & Music by Geoff Twigg
©Marks of Christ

Verse 1:
This is a holy place
The Lord is very near
Turning to seek His face
We sense His presence here
The Father's grace has
Made us worthy to come
Our sins forgiven
By the death of His Son

Verse 2:
This is a listening hour
And all our hearts are stirred
Who, by the Spirit's power
Hear and obey His word
High in the darkness
Like a tower on a hill
His light will guide us as
We walk in His will

Verse 3:
All who are suffering
There is a welcome here
Healing our Lord can bring
Comfort that dries each tear!
We serve the Savior
By whose love we are known
In grateful service for
The mercy He's shown

Verse 4:
We seek to follow Him
Lead others in His way
To turn away from sin
Grow more like Christ each day
Exalting Jesus our example and Lord
Friends and disciples in the
Light of His word

Verse 5:
Once more, from Heaven's throne
We hear our Lord's command!
Go, make the gospel known
Preach Christ in every land!
His voice is calling!
How on earth will they know?
God's love is burning
In our hearts as we go...

Chorus:
To obey the great commandments
To fulfill the great Commission
And to do it all to the glory of God!
To become more like the Savior
Worship Him and love our neighbor
And to do it all to the glory of God!
