My friend Kari shared this song and video with me and I fell in love with the words. I am up to my neck in cleaning and rearranging my home…remember the great bedroom rearrangement project…and I took a short break to listen to this song. The more I listened, the more I loved it. I listened to a few more of her songs and now I want to listen to all of them! I have to get back to work though, so I will limit myself to sharing this one with you.

Brothers, let us come together
Walking in the Spirit
There’s much to be done
We will come reaching out from our comforts
And they will know us by our love

Sisters, we were made for kindness
We can pierce the darkness as He shines through us
We will come reaching with a song a healing
And they will know us by our love

The time is now
Come church arise
Love with His hands
See with His eyes
Bind it around you
Let it never leave you
And they will know us by our love

Children you are hope for justice
Stand firm in the truth now
Set your hearts above
You will be reaching long after we’re gone
And they will know you by your love

The time is now
Come church arise
Love with His hands
See with His eyes
Bind it around you
Let it never leave you
And they will know us by our love

The time is now
Come church arise
Love with His hands
See with His eyes
Bind it around you
Let it never leave you
And they will know us by our love
