Chorus
We gather together in the church.
We gather together in the church.
Verse 1
It’s a gathering of people who love God.
We eat and drink God’s word, fellowship about the truth,
our hearts full of sweetness and happiness.
From memories of the past, we feel remorse and guilt.
Now knowing each other, we live in God’s love.
Without prejudice, barriers, and distance,
we love each other, one family,
our hearts entwined, so close, no space between us.
Chorus
We gather together in the church.
We gather together in the church.
Bridge
Our languages differ but hearts are joined.
We share a common quest in the words of God.
We testify to God’s love, share experience.
Now we pursue the truth, live in His words.
Our prospects are boundless, full of life and light.
We work hard together, forward we strive.
Chorus
We gather together in the church.
We gather together in the church.
Verse 2
But all of us soon will go separate ways.
For we bear God’s commission, and we carry out our mission.
We’ll go our own way to testify to God.
His love calls forth our deepest devotion.
We’re filled with laughter when together.
We encourage each other when we part.
We use our strength for a better tomorrow.
We follow Christ closely, devoted to God.
Chorus
We gather together in the church.
We gather together in the church.
We gather together in the church.
We gather together in the church.
