Yours is a share
in the work of the Lord's Spirit
who draws us together into one,
who makes harmony out of discord,
who sings in our hearts
the lyric of all that is holy.
Yours is the joy of sounding that first note
which brings the assembly to its feet,
ready to praise God.
Yours is to impart
a "quality of joy and enthusiasm
(that) cannot be gained in any other way."
Yours is a ministry
that reaches the deepest recesses
of the human heart;
Your work is soul-stirring.
