All We God's Children

The youth in my church are very dear to my heart. They are like a second family to me. We have been through a lot as a group. After all these years, they are now to me like brothers and sisters, and the dearest of friends. I love them a whole lot because they give meaning to the phrase "family of God". I value them because it is not always that I can find friends with whom I can build a Christ-centered relationship.
For the youth at church, thank you so much for the times together, good and bad. I hope to make more memories of you, and of us. I will keep thanking God for you, and praying that He will see each of us through.

I wrote this for us all.

ALL WE GOD'S CHILDREN

We came together, different we may be,
Yet we lift our voices in a single melody.
Here we stand together, a family in God.
As brothers and sisters, one in Jesus' blood.

Still we stand together in a friendship rare and true,
Bound by truth and spirit, love and service too.
Our joys are all doubled, our sorrows cut in half.
We make a little heaven, by our friendship, by our love.

All we God's children bound by His love,
Born of His Spirit, bought with His blood.
We will grow ever upward, walking in the light.
We are near one to another, when we all are near to Christ.

While waiting for our Father, our commission we'll fulfill.
We'll work side by side, obey His perfect will.
We'll overcome together, though it be flame or flood.
We'll help one another grow in the love of God.

And we'll be standing together before the throne of God.
We will walk hand in hand on the heavenly sod.

I hope you like it, and may we live the life of the blessed...

God loves all of you and I do too.
