Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Brothers and sisters, hear the call and gather around
In the name of our Lord, to His light, we respond
No favoritism in His house, can't you see?
Golden ring or patched coat, we're all equals, truly
[Chorus]
Our gaze is lifted, hearts uplifted
By the love and the kindness of our God
No rich nor poor in His sight, but fear not, dear brother
For our Father chose those lowly to be rich in faith
[Verse 2]
Wear the robe of His mercy, be the hands of His grace
Do not despair, for the rich in faith shall inherit
His Kingdom, promised to us, to every believing heart
Those who love, who hope, who shine His light in the dark
[Chorus]
Love thy neighbor, just like you'd love yourself
That's the royal law, the one that does it well
Is walking in His footsteps, is living in His light
Discrimination breeds sin, paves the path of the night
[Bridge]
Faith without deeds is like a tree without leaves
Faith without action, a bird without wings
In the light, in the dark, let your faith be seen
In the hands you raise, in the love you give, you're seen
[Verse 3]
Abraham, the patriarch, His courage be our guide
Offered everything, and faith stood firm by his side
His faith and deeds, in harmony, stretched out in space
Not just by faith, but by actions that made his faith complete
[Chorus]
Mercy, over justice, shows the way we go,
In His plan, in His wisdom, that's how it unfolds
In the name of the Lord, let all discrimination cease
For we're all sinners, but most of all, we are His beloved peace
[Verse 4]
Rahab, the harlot, in His eyes, seen anew,
For her faith in action, His grace came through to her
When she hid the spies, faith with deeds intertwined
Her heart brave, her faith true, in His embrace, she found her way
[Chorus]
Let deeds and faith in harmony, let your life be the light
Let your faith show in your actions, guide others to the light
Brothers and sisters, in every deed, in every thought and word,
Let your faith be the beacon, the light, the staff, for all the world.
