A thousand hearts fused into one
Many souls from many an origin – many a background – many an experience
Different yet similar
Diverse yet united
Individuals yet unified
Joined together into one
Congregated together as one
And bound together by One

Their purpose is singular
Their objectives are the same
Their aim is one
This singular congregation
Associating for collective growth
Uniting for corporate development
Actively engaged in the race
Striving to become as Him who binds them together
Steadfastly poised to change their world

Great may be the challenges
Many may be the battles
Formidable may be the foe
Long may be the road
Tortuous may be the path
But by the power of the Lord their God
Challenges are surmounted
Battles are won
The foe is defeated
The path is navigated
And the destination is sure

These thousand hearts who are one
These many souls thus united
This great association so unified
This glorious fellowship
To which many have come
From which many have gone
Where many still are
And to which many more will yet come
But with the changing generations
The vision remains unchanged
And this vision, shall their Lord fulfil
Making them kings and priests unto God and His Father
