Now That We Are Here
Now that we’re here, let’s do the best
Optimizing diligent zeal
For work well-done to the fullest
Yielding labour fruits of blest seal.
With the Lord's strength as girding might
Now that we’re here, let’s do the best
Radiating life-building's hope-light
Showing kindness with loving zest.
Pressing* toward achievement crest
For pursuits along faith-venture
Now that we’re here, let’s do the best
Through divine nature and nurture.
Smiting pride in greediness bout
Reaching-out midst selfishness test
Together our hearts gladly shout
Now that we’re here, let’s do the best.
*Philippians 3:14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
