Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Thanks for joining us here!

Wow, you wrote this? :thumbsup:
No, I actually know the song...it's written by John Bell lyrics and somebody else did the music.

I'll post another verse:
"Lord, your summons echoes true when you but call my name; Let me turn and follow you and never be the same; In your company I'll go where your love and footsteps show. Thus I'll live move and grow in you and you in me. - The Summons, verse #5

That is great! I will have to check into the rest of the lyrics.
Thanks for posting the verses. It really moves me! If you know what I mean!

"Will you come and follow me, If I but call your name? Will you go where you don't know And never be the same? Will you let my love be shown, Will you let my name be known; Will you let my life be grown In you and you in me?" - The Summons verse #1

"Will you leave your self behind, If I but call your name? Will you care for cruel and kind And never be the same? Will you risk the hostile stare, Should your life attract or scare; Will you let me answer prayer in you and you in me?" - The Summons, verse #2

Have you found the music to go with it? I'm posting for others who just want to know the lyrics...

"Will you the blinded see, If I but call your name? Will you set the prisoners free And never be the same; Will you kiss the leper clean, And do such as this unseen; And admit to what I mean in you and you in me? - The Summons, verse #3

(I'm off finding another moving song like The Summons...)

No point in me finding the music. No musical talent happening here! LOL
The melody of the song is great. I found it online before...Here's a quote that should look familiar...

"Forever you are with us, forever you are strong, forever you are with us forever..." -Michael W. Smith (Forever: quoting keychange part)
