God of Justice

Micha 6-8 (JustWallpaper).preview

For those planning to attend this Sunday’s Prayer and Worship Night at FBC, here is just a taste of what you’ll see, and what we will be praying about for our city and community… it’s something that has been on my heart for quite some time, but read over the lyrics to Tim Hughes’  “God of Justice”, taken from Micah 6:8.  As we pray for our communities, let us remember the heart of our call as believers, and remember how simple it really is.

I often forget the simplicity of our call… Act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly…

God of Justice, Savior to all
Came to rescue the weak and the poor
Chose to serve and not be served

Jesus, You have called us
Freely we’ve received
Now freely we will give

We must go live to feed the hungry
Stand beside the broken
We must go
Stepping forward keep us from just singing
Move us into action
We must go

To act justly everyday
Loving mercy in every way
Walking humbly before You God

You have shown us, what You require
Freely we’ve received
Now freely we will give

Fill us up and send us out
Fill us up and send us out
Fill us up and send us out Lord

One thought on “God of Justice

  1. Mer…I have been listening to this song non-stop on the bus. I love it and it the cry of my heart! I wish I could be there for the prayer night. I will be praying from West Virginia. Good on ya for sharing this! You like that little bit of New Zealand lingo slipped in there? 🙂 I look forward to more heart to heart talks when I am home.

    Love,
    Ang
