129.  In The Gatherings

In the gatherings of the Christians, All may prophesy we're told, One by one to share and comfort, Speaking forth for Christ so bold.

In the church each saint must function, This is God's desire today, From the least one to the greatest, Christ expressed in every way.

2.

Love that's free from all pretension, Giving hospitality, Some so cheerful, showing mercy, All to pray continually.

In the church each saint must function, This is God's desire today, From the least one to the greatest, Christ expressed in every way.

3.

Some to teach and some exhorting, Some to minister and serve, Some with diligence for leading, Each his function must observe.

In the church each saint must function, This is God's desire today, From the least one to the greatest, Christ expressed in every way.

4.

Some with verse or testimony, Some with song their Christ can share, Each with strong and ready spirit, None in bondage to his chair!

In the church each saint must function, This is God's desire today, From the least one to the greatest, Christ expressed in every way.

5.

For the spirits of the prophets, To the prophets subject are, Each must exercise his spirit, That's what gifts are given for.

In the church each saint must function, This is God's desire today, From the least one to the greatest, Christ expressed in every way.
