As We Suffer For The Lord (2​.​17​-​30)

from Philippians by Our Pilgrim Songs

/

lyrics

We must be examples for the saints to emulate
Walking in submission, and obedient in faith
We must live courageous, loyal, faithful, holy lives
Imitating Paul as he is imitating Christ

We must all abandon our ambition for prestige
Serving one another in concern for others needs
Surrendering our freedom now to suffer in this life
Imitating Timothy who imitated Christ

We must show compassion for our brethren in the church
Diligent submissiveness exhibits proven worth
Surrendering our safety for the church we risk our lives
Like Epaphorditus who was imitating Christ

Rejoice, share the joy As we suffer for the Lord
Rejoice, share the joy As we suffer for the Lord

As those who walk before us, showing selfless sacrifice
Whose hearts were fixed on heaven, who possessed eternal life
We must die in service here denying selfish pride
Following the footsteps of the ones who follow Christ
