Find hymn on ONE LICENSE

1 The Church is wherever God's people are praising,
singing their thanks for joy on this day.
The Church is wherever disciples of Jesus
remember His story and walk in His way.

2 The Church is wherever God's people are helping,
caring for neighbours in sickness and need.
The Church is wherever God's people are sharing
the words of the Bible in gift and in deed.
