Chorus 1
I am the church
You are the church
We are the church together
All who follow Jesus
All around the world
Yes we're the church together
Verse 1
The church is not a building
The church is not a steeple
The church is not a resting place
The church is a people
Verse 2
We're many kinds of people
With many kinds of faces
All colors and all ages too
From all times and places
Verse 3
Sometimes the church is marching
Sometimes it's bravely burning
Sometimes it's riding sometimes hiding
Always it's learning
Verse 4
And when the people gather
There's singing and there's praying
There's laughing and there's crying sometimes
All of it saying
Verse 5
At Pentecost some people
Received the Holy Spirit
And told the Good News
Through the world
To all who would hear it
