A Body of One in Christ


Romans 12:1-5


I urge you brother by the mercy of God,
That you worship Him in honor and laud;
Relying on the Lord for help and advice,
And give your body as a living sacrifice.

For it is pleasing to God right and Holy,
In worshiping the Lord your God only;
Let your behavior be not of this earth,
To be truly able to experience rebirth.

Be made new in mind, body and spirit,
Because of eternal life that you inherit;
So that you experience the full wisdom,
Given you from the Heavenly Kingdom.

I say onto you through grace given to me,
Not to start getting cocky having vanity;
Rather of wise thoughts as God has given,
With a measure of faith that is in Heaven.

Through Christ we are of a body of one,
Each person has a job having to get done;
One body in Christ being linked together,
And in being dependent upon each other.
