Biblical, Disciple-Making Church Models

So may our churches, now awaken,
To obey, and pray and plan,
Asking God, to raise up laborers,
Disciple-making, is Jesus’ command.

By Faith

Yes by faith, not pew spectators,
But by faith, become His laborer,
Not wrapped up, in our own lives,
But by faith, obey the Savior.

Search to be trained, equipped to go,
So at work, in school, with neighbors,
Disciple-making, from seeds that grow.

Our goal, bringing God glory,
Disciple-making, His strategy,
Equipping saints, to spread His story.

May prove, what’s good, acceptable,

No more bitterness nor anger,
Start forgiving and forgetting,
For in Jesus, we’re forgiven,
May we repent, by grace resetting.
