Life is a Ministry

Arkay Evans
Believers take a motor ride,
The bible's a map, so read it straight-
For prayer guides the wandering mind
Persistent to the pearly gates,

As winding roads stretch out before us
the Hemi is our faith,

Just like when they pierced his side,
Just as when they hung our Savior,
Just as when they stretched him wide,
Jesus is Love,
and Love was the meaning of his life

So every day when you awake
remember the risen was driven by faith,
Embrace your blessed debts to pay,
the loved ones,
a husband, the children, a wife-

For death is not a ministry
Through you Jesus speaks to me,
and the ministry is called
Your Life
