In the realm of faith, a beacon bright,
The Christian Reformed Church takes flight.
With virtues true, its purpose clear,
A haven of grace, a vision sincere.
A thousand words may scarce suffice,
To praise the church, its virtues precise.
But let us embark on this poetic quest,
To paint a portrait, its beauty expressed.
Unity binds this sacred space,
Believers gathering, our hearts embrace.
A tapestry woven, diverse & strong,
In harmony we sing, redemption's song.
From far & wide, we gather as one,
United in Christ, the name of the Son.
A fellowship of saints, our spirits blend,
Our love for God, we constantly tend.
A foundation firm, the Word our guide,
Scripture's wisdom, our souls reside.
The teachings resonate, eternal & true,
Guiding our steps in all we pursue.
With open hearts, compassion flows,
For every child, each soul that grows.
In service to others, our arms extend,
A helping hand we gladly lend.
A mission to heal, to mend the broken,
To share the gospel, the sacred token.
With humility, we seek to serve,
And thru our actions, God's love preserve.
Education, a pillar we uphold,
Seeking wisdom, our minds unfold.
Schools & seminaries, places of light,
Nurturing minds, igniting insight.
In the realm of justice, we take a stand,
Advocating for truth across the land.
Against injustice, oppression, & strife,
We fight for the outcast, bringing new life.
The CRC stands tall,
With open doors, it welcomes all.
No matter the race, background, or need,
In God's embrace, we are One in creed
Thru worship & prayer, we find solace,
Encountering God's grace, His love, His promise.
sacraments & hymns, our spirits rise,
In communion with the divine, we realize.
Leadership wise, shepherds who guide,
Thru pastoral care, we walk beside.
We shepherd our flock, both young & old,
Guiding them safely within the fold.
Generosity abounds within our hearts,
For stewardship, we play our parts.
With resources shared, we alleviate need,
Feeding the hungry, stopping the bleed
The CRC, a radiant light,
Reflecting God's love, burning bright.
With humble hearts & unwavering faith,
We journey together, walking straight.
So let us celebrate this sacred ground,
Where love & hope forever resound.
The CRC a gift divine,
Its good qualities, in this poem, shine.
May its legacy endure through the ages,
Inspiring hearts, turning the pages.
In the tapestry of faith, a vibrant hue,
The Christian Reformed Church, steadfast & true.
