God of Justice, Saviour to all
Came to rescue the weak and the poor
Chose to serve and not be served

Jesus, You have called us
Freely we've received
Now freely we will give

We must go live to feed the hungry
Stand beside the broken
We must go
Stepping forward keep us from just singing
Move us into action
We must go

To act justly everyday
Loving mercy in every way
Walking humbly before You God

You have shown us, what You require
Freely we've received
Now freely we will give

We must go live to feed the hungry

Stand beside the broken
We must go
Stepping forward keep us from just singing
Move us into action
We must go

Fill us up and send us out
Fill us up and send us out
Fill us up and send us out Lord (x4)

Acting humbly
Loving mercy
We must go, we must go
To the broken
And the hurting
We must go, we must go

We must go live to feed the hungry
Stand beside the broken
We must go
Stepping forward keep us from just singing
Move us into action
We must go

Micah 6:8, "And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."

and a smaller version:

saw this posted on FB. nice nice NICE! i'm so glad that when Christ was born, God sent His angels to shepherds to proclaim the good news. shepherds, who were the poorest in the agricultural system. shepherds, who were so poor, that they had to work night shift. i'm so glad that Christ wasn't born in a palace, or even a mansion, or even a proper home. i'm so glad that He was born in a manger. it sounds wrong, but i'm also glad that when Christ was born, the first smell that reached His nose was the smell of probably horses' dung. i'm so glad that he was wrapped in swaddling cloths, not with silk or other haughty and expensive materials. because to me, it shows that the poor has a special place in God's heart. Christ identifies with the poor. and to quote that Bono guy, God is with the poor. and God is with us if we're with them. Psalm 72: For He will deliver the needy when he cries,          The poor also, and him who has no helper. He will spare the poor and needy,          And will save the souls of the needy. He will redeem their life from oppression and violence;          And precious shall be their blood in His sight.
