prepare a place

Prepare a place.
A fellowship, a community,
Where we are blessed to serve,
Rooted down, not band to party we lurch,
A church.

Prepare a place.
A position, a vocation,
Though responsibility it is no drudgery,
Not pacing rats for us, life in eyes robbed,
A job.

Prepare a place.
A safety and dwelling, a home,
Our physical domain not exclusive,
A refuge for ones broken, to rejoice and carouse,
A house.

Prepare a place.
These hearts, these minds,
Given to assuming, to thinking what's best,
The goal not mere comfort, You desire we thrive,
So though our thoughts can't conceive it,
Prepare this place, our lives.
