1 Corinthians 12: 12-13

12 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For in the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.

One.

You make us One.

Your spirit unites us as One.

The broken and the disparate.

The minority and the other.

The marginalised and the radicalised.

The compliant and the disillusioned.

One.

You make us one.

Your Spirit unites us as one.

The bold and the certain.

The timid and the shy.

The out-there and the closeted.

The accepted and the excluded.

One, you make us one.

God of all 

may we expand our circle, 

open our hearts,

spread wide our reach

so that, in the power of your Spirit

we become one in you.

One.

You make us one.

Your Spirit unites us as one.

So may it be.
