Power to Unite - in time for the Synod on The Bible by October 2008


POWER TO UNITE


There’s a desperation that exists in the world
A growing helplessness we’re at a loss to solve
We yearn for peace yet fight for selfish reasons
We search for meaning but fooled by illusions
What went wrong? Why does everyday seem to get worse?
In the midst of doubt and temptation
God gives us the simple solution.


Read the Bible.
The Word of God will give you strength
To face the challenge of living.
Read the Bible. Open it. Feel it. Understand it.
It is the source of our hope when life is too heavy to bear.
When all seems lost and unclear.
Read the Bible and its message will wipe away your fear.



Gather all the families of the world and read with one voice
Let God’s Words fill you with hope and heal your divisions.
Increase your faith with the promise of salvation.
Remove your doubts and heal the wounds.


Wake up! Listen!
See the world with new eyes
Walk in sunshine. Wipe the sadness.
Unite the colors of humankind.
Peace is elusive, but with God we can achieve it.
His Words have the power to unite the human race.
