To Worship, Work, and Witness

Author: Henry Lyle Lambdin Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #263 (2010) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 To worship, work, and witness, the Good News spread abroad, we magnify your mission, Church of the living God; the Father's new creation through Jesus Christ His Son, the Spirit has empowered to do as Christ has done. 2 Be yours the Master's purpose to seek and save the lost, to ransom those in bondage, to dare not count the cost; to love and lift the lowly, to heed the prisoner's groan, to take up others' burdens and bear them as your own. 3 As members of Christ's body, hold fast to Christ your Head; become Christ's open letter, by others to be read; bear witness as Christ's temple, Himself the cornerstone, and be Christ's living altar whereon His love is shown.
