Matthew 14:30
God crossed a border, a boundary
left his world to go on a journey into ours
the word became flesh and moved into the neighbourhood
dwelt among us
we stand in a long line of ancestors
of pioneers
of risk takers
of improvisers
of those who dared to take the adventure
of following Christ
step off its edge
free falling with God
crossing borders
into unknown futures
and new worlds
to share the glory of Christ
and plant the seed of the gospel
as the Father sent me so I am sending you
the story has been passed to us because of those
who dared,
who risked,
who dreamed,
who followed,
who improvised,
now we stand looking out into the future
will you dare?
will you dream?
will you risk?
will you follow?
will you leave your known world?
will you freefall with God?
will you join Christ in the adventure?
will you be baptised into God's mission?
will you rise to surf with God into the future?
will you trust the Spirit?
far we have come far we must go
here we are send us

Actually , years ago, when I sang this song in church, I felt for the first time the touch of the Holy Spirit.
