Our Spiritual Vision

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

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

So daily put on, the new man
In God’s likeness, created
In true righteousness, holiness
Daily victorious, and elated.

With three billion, unaware
Of Jesus’ Name, to our shame
Let us pray, give and go
’tis our duty, and aim.

We are here for God’s business
His purpose, not our own
Bringing Him glory
Go make disciples, seeds sown.

But then sadly, he succumbed
Asked for earrings, from his plunder
Israel gave him much gold
He made an ephod, an evil blunder.

The flames may have died
Fierce passions, ran dry
Many churches, dwindling
Are now asking why?

So instead, of self-approval
Or seek approval, of others
Know, we’re created for God
For His approval, not another.

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?
