Be reconciled to God.
This is our Savior's call:
Bear witness to the saving grace
Of One who died for all.
Creation now made new!
This is our Master's call:
Bear witness to the new-made life
Where sin cannot enthrall.
Ambassadors for Christ:
This is the Spirit's call.
Bear witness to the love of God
For all things great and small.
The righteousness of God:
This is our godly call.
Bear witness to the living Christ
Who will not let us fall.
Be reconciled to God.
This is our life's true call:
Bear witness to the saving grace
Of Christ who died for all.

I've had this passage engraved on my brain ever since being a "Royal Ambassador" as a boy (some of you might know what that means).
