For dying churches to survive,
They really need to come alive,
And even if they’re very small,
Show their faith is there for all.
Don’t just go each week and say
It’s nice to while an hour away.
But be more active, have a change,
Maybe even re-arrange
The service so it’s relevant
To all, as well as those content
To come each week, as they’ve always done
Even if it’s not much fun.
A vibrant church will tell the world,
This is where the faith’s unfurled,
This is where you ought to be,
If you’ve never been, just come and see.
And people then will want to go,
And that small church will start to grow.
