Ripening now upon our stem
What have we now to say?
Offering of our best each day
Our heart, our words
And what we do
Giving freely
Placing all first before God
Trusting Him who does supply

Bold and strong
Or weak and trembling
… yet we stand
On solid rock
We will not fall, so
Watch for sand and gravel
One step we take
And then another
Daily onward in prayer and faith
Stepping forth
We’re not alone
… Guided by God’s sure hand
Charlotte-Anne Allen

A gleam a thought
Watch as ideas awaken
Designers and dreamers
Envision wholeness
Each thread each vine
Every reed and fiber
Interlacing forming linking
Drawn by a master’s hand
The weaver’s fingers
Move with purpose
Crossing wrapping
Pulling together
Patterns and designs
Take shape and reveal
That which was weak
Coming together
Story of redemption
Woven treasure
From brokenness
beauty emerges
