Opening Salvo
When we worship
We stand on the shoulders of a thousand generations who knew God
Who saw him move and moved with him
Who heard him speak and spoke with him
Who bathed in his spirit, and with spirit-filled hearts
danced and
sang and
leapt with joy
Who saw something of his nature and
had their hearts broken for the
weak and the
weary and the
orphans and the
widows
broken for the poverty and
fear and
injustice and
cruelty of the world
Who were not content to sit idly by and mourn these things
but who seized upon lives that
changed the world, and with every breath
They worshiped God.
