"Same Baptism, Same Spirit, Same Calling" by Jessica Gerhardt
For Vocations Sunday 2024, musician Jessica Gerhardt created a song based on our theme: "Same Baptism, Same Spirit, Same Calling." Lyrics:
Oh God of truth and justice
You tear down every wall
Same baptism, same spirit,
same calling for us all
Where our deep gladness meets the world’s need
Where our deep listening reveals your voice
May our whole church see we are one body
In every calling let us rejoice
If every flower looked like the roses
Nature would lose the beauty of the spring
Let us embrace each and every wildflower
Let us celebrate the joy that each one brings
