1 In the church the sound of life upon our ear is falling,
Then we see the joy of Christ expressed on every hand;
We're churching in the Spirit
On the church's local ground;
We're churching with our brothers,
Our family we have found.
Oh, yes, we're churching with the churches, and we'll make the earth resound
With hallelujahs for Christ our land!
2 Far away our background seems with all its gifts and teaching,
Farther still, the worldly things with all their foul demand;
We're churching in the Spirit
On the church's local ground;
We're churching with our brothers,
Our family we have found.
Oh, yes, we're churching with the churches, and we'll make the earth resound
With hallelujahs for Christ our land!
3 "I will build My church upon this rock," said the Lord Jesus,
And we see the building of His purpose and His plan;
We're churching in the Spirit
On the church's local ground;
We're churching with our brothers,
Our family we have found.
Oh, yes, we're churching with the churches, and we'll make the earth resound
With hallelujahs for Christ our land!
4 Now the Lord's recovery is everywhere proceeding,
All the churches join in one to give the Lord command:
"Speed the day when all the earth will echo with pray-reading
We're churching in the Spirit
On the church's local ground;
We're churching with our brothers,
Our family we have found.
Oh, yes, we're churching with the churches, and we'll make the earth resound
With hallelujahs for Christ our land!
