Consecrate Anew Today

Gospel of the kingdom we spread,
Let all peoples know God’s will;
Great wheel, by the Spirit we’re led,
The goal of the age fulfill.
His voice calls, His love compels us;
How can we still hesitate?
To all lands follow Christ the Lamb,
God’s hidden myst’ry relate.

In love, and in spirit sustain
Each member insep’rably.
Hold fast to the Head and be blent;
Coordinate selflessly.
Self surrender, trust the Body,
By His power, strengthened be;
Not one lost, all share victory;
Praying, the foe we defeat!

Go forth! In one Body advance,
Proclaiming the Jubilee;
Flow forth life and truth to all lands;
Be one with the ministry.
Break through culture, language, races;
Transfer all men into Christ;
In each place, one accord embrace,
The one new man realize.

Rise up! To God’s heart we respond,
Plunge into the flow today!
Give all! His delight’s our reward;
With all our might, forward race!
Overcomers—martyred, raptured,
His return in secret taste;
Pillars, Christ’s testimony bear,
Shine as that City for aye!
