The Mission Driven Church

With those gifted, to equip saints
For the work of the ministry
Edifying, the body of Christ,
To go multiply, in each vicinity.

We need vision to see
Our prime purpose in life
Fulfilling god’s calling
In this world of strife.

So let us learn, to reproduce
In the lives, of friends and neighbors
By evangelizing, then discipling
Multiplying disciple makers.

His primary goal, our salvation
Our atonement, kept His Word
Yet first trained, His disciples
To spread His Gospel, to the world.

Has the church, lost its way
Is it biblically sound?
Are we teaching to obey
So, disciple-makers are found?

Our declaration – we will shout
From every pinnacle, pay any price
The only hope, for this dying world
Is a relationship, with Jesus Christ.

So, He trained and role-modeled
Not spectators, but partakers
As He discipled His followers
To be faithful, disciple-makers.

While many churches, think revival
Are not equipping and training
How to go, make new disciples
That go forth, disciple-making.

Not just missionaries, overseas
Nor pastors, evangelists
We’re each called, to reproduce
Be disciple-makers, be a catalyst.

So are our churches, today
Filled with saints, on fire?
Discipled, and out sharing
Making disciples, as required?
