My gay lifestyle to all was known. It seemed I was on trial
They made me feel I didn't belong, I cried just like a child.
A caring face could not be found. My mind was not at ease.
Then Jesus heard my whimpering sound. He gave me MCC.
Now here I stand just as I am, so very proud to say,
God reached for me, he held my hand, and I'm still blessed today.
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound. Still others shed their tears.
They think God's love cannot be found. So we must bring them here.
Creator help us seek out those who fear to look above.
Gay, bi or straight, they all should know, by you they're truly loved
Our doors are opened to their needs. We welcome them to stay.
Lord bless your church as we proceed, in Jesus name I pray.
Amen.
