  1. We are moving, we are moving

    On the pilgrim path of Jesus,         

    From our pride to being humble,              

    From enclosed to being open        

    On the living path of Jesus.

 

  1. We are joining, we are joining,

    Joining sages and the prophets

    In their work for peace and justice

    For the poor and servile persons

    In the living way of prophets.

 

  1. We are dreaming, we are dreaming

    Of a Kingdom that is coming.

    Move from dreaming to the action

    Then return to active planning

    To embrace what’s surely coming.

 

  1. We are changing, we are changing

    To embrace the Way of Jesus,

    From consuming to conserving,

    From competing to supporting

    In the Way of life with Jesus.

 

  1. We are loving, we are loving,

    Loving in the Way of Jesus,

    From condemning to affirming,

    From rejecting to embracing

    In the loving Way of Jesus.

 

  1. We are weaving, we are weaving,

    Weaving many sacred patterns

    In a whole that’s now emerging

    To embrace creative crafting

    Of a fabric with new patterns.

 

  1. We are praising, we are praising

    Through the Spirit’s gift of singing,

    From repression to expression,

    From the solemn to the joyful,

    Filled with Spirit’s joy and singing.

    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Amen

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

William (Bill) Livingstone Wallace is a retired New Zealand Methodist Minister and one of our most prolific contributors. Bill says that his work springs from communicating with the fire in his gut and his observation of both the internal and external aspects of the Cosmos. Since an early age, he has been both sympathetic to and critical of the church, announcing at the age of 13 his belief in evolution. In his youth, he struggled with the disconnection between art and spirituality in his own and other denominations and with the way in which all of the liturgies prior to the sermon were regarded as preliminaries and longer sermons were viewed as superior to more concise ones.

He holds a B.A. in philosophy and a Dip. Ed. and is the author of nine published collections of his hymns as well as other resources on our website. His aim is to help people be empowered by the divine within them and the Cosmos and to work to overthrow the forces of personal and institutional greed which destroy both the ecosystem and human society.
