The Household

We have lost our way and everything’s strange
Where is our connection and how do we change?
We feel all alone, even in a crowd
We are afraid to ask, we’re much too proud

Let down your guard and let people see
No one’s perfect and neither are we
Honesty lets down walls we hold so high
Our cocoon is a prison, speak up - don’t be shy

The household is fruitful as we stand
A place of safety and a helping hand
Our hearts are open to the love we share
The mighty amoung us bring healing and care

They give and they minister, great power to impart
Received with meekness the sharing to start
Spiritual life from their heart is eagerly believed
They see with God’s eyes, sweet unity achieved

As we grow in respect, looking beyond the sin
We see in each other the Christ within
As brothers and sisters we come to the light
With God’s spirit within we stand in the fight

As we teach each other, all our needs are met
We have the same Father - Eternity is set
Exceeding joy from our Father above
Gives us great strength as we stand in love
