Teach

If we are called to change the world we must
Know what it is that we are called to change
If we’re to challenge that which is unjust
Then we must let ourselves be rearranged
The stories of our faith must be passed on
Proclaimed afresh to each new generation
But in a world where so much has gone wrong
Those ancient stories need a new narration
God made the world with loving care and we
With love and care must also play our part
Holding creation in integrity
Healing broken land and broken hearts
In what we do and say and sing and preach
This is the tale of hope which we must teach
