"We carry this treasure in earthen vessels,
hidden to man's mere mortal eye!
I am dead in Christ, it is He
who lives, no longer I."
Truly our brethren have embraced this Truth
and live its reality day to day.
Let us pray that they might live to see
yet another day and
glorify Christ as living sacrifices,
as lights in this dark world,
as those who dance through
on the Feet of Faith.
Let our prayers lift them up, strengthen and
under gird them for His Service, where e'er that might lead.
Oh for your protection and mercy Lord we plead!
For our brothers and sisters in far away lands
that they continue to stand and
declare Your Lordship for all to see.
Let your Glory shine forth and
bring many captive souls out
of bondage and set them free.
Grace them and us for the race we run.
Let all in Truth and Love be done.
Make a way, show Your face.
Give a song of faith
even as death some will embrace.
Lord for us who know
not such pain, help us our idols cast
that Christ we gain.
You prayed O Lord to make us one...
even as Father and Son!
So, we link our hearts and hands
in prayer across the globe,
for those who wear the
martyrs' crown and robe.
