Lyrics:
What is important? What matters more?
Human connection or keeping score?
In our pursuit of justice and truth
Let us remember: we fall short, too
We’ve been shown mercy all of our lives
By the creator of humankind
So when we’re in a position to judge
Let us remember: they’re just like us
Following Jesus, living in truth
We remain faithful to our roots
When those roots lead us outside the lines
Let us remember: faith is alive
What does the Lord require of us?
To remain humble, loving, and just
Keeping the heart of the gospel in mind
Let us remember: do what is right
