Community
"Community"
In this culture of individualism
Autonomy, property, you or me
I am choosing to live an alternate vision
Common good, neighborhood, where it is understood that
Chorus: We were made to live inside the circle
God's embrace, the arms around us all
In this place, we receive each other
For who we are and who we're meant to be
Community
In this culture of constant competition
Private wealth, out for self, trophy shelf
I am choosing to live an alternate vision
Sharing gifts, working with, building partnership
Chorus:
Bridge: We are all connected; we're interdependent
The autonomous individual is an illusion
The truth of who we are is wrapped up in the scars
Of the One who lived and died the way of communion
Chorus:
