WE GO, LIVING AND SERVING IN GOD’S BLESSINGTestimony of Faith: Our World Belongs to God #6

We rejoice in the goodness of God, renounce the works of darkness, and dedicate ourselves to holy living.
As covenant partners, set free for joyful obedience, we offer our hearts and lives to do God’s work in the world.
With tempered impatience, eager to see injustice ended, we expect the Day of the Lord.
We are confident that the light which shines in the present darkness will fill the earth when Christ appears.
Come, Lord Jesus. Our world belongs to you.
