we are the body

Mandi Mapes

We are the body of the most high
We are the bride of a savior
And we fall for the king of the kingdom
As we sing the songs of salvation

And we stand for those who cannot stand for themselves
And we love the loveless
And we go where your light's not shining
We are the body of christ

We shine like a city on a hilltop
We boast in the spirit living in us
And we march on a road leading to freedom
As we reach out our hands to the fallen

And we bring living water to the thirsty and
We live for the one who was and is and is to come so our life counts for something greater than ourselves
We are the body of christ

And our anthem will be a song of praise to the king
"He is worthy, he is worthy" with one voice we will sing, "where oh death is your sting"
He is mighty, he is mighty
