United As One

No 139 in AOV NG is an energetic gathering song called “United As One” written by Mathew Walker and performed by Dave Eason on the AOV NG CD.  I don’t much about him except that the song won a prize. Again, I can’t find a link but you can learn it from my backing.

Verse 1

What can we give, as we come here today
But stories of our lives

What can we bring, what can we give
To raise your spirit high

Chorus

Gathered here today
United in love
Your spirit is with us to share and celebrate

Gathered as God’s people
Under one cross
We are Christ’s body
United as one

Verse 2

What do we share, as we come here today
But the story of his life

How can we learn, to love as he loved
To proclaim your power and might

Chorus

Verse 3

Now that we’ve all, been renewed in your love
And felt your hand in our lives

We must all go and be saints of this day
And spread your message wide.

Chorus (rpt)
