"Each Christian has a Calling" Hymn
Written for the 2021 Year of Leader Formation by David Gambrell, PC(USA) Associate for Worship, this hymn affirms the Christian vocation of each member of the church, rooted in our common baptism. The verses, sung in unison, describe the particular forms of service of those called to ordered ministry—as deacons (verse 2), ruling elders (verse 3), and ministers of Word and Sacrament (verse 4). The refrain, sung in harmony, emphasizes the communal nature of Christian ministry.
The tune CALLING is a David Gambrell original, created for the Year of Leader Formation.
This hymn is also available scored with the familiar tune VALET WILL ICH DIR GEBEN.
