We Are First Fruits

Look up! Look up! Look up to the sky,
Don't be weary and wonder why
We are the children, beloved of God
We are the ones that will be His rod.

We're tested and proven we will not quit!
He knows our condition and if we are fit
To carry His Word to all nations around
His truth will be taught and love will abound.

We're given a torch to be carried high
We're covered with His truth and do not lie
God has redeemed us to serve and to love
He's poured out His Spirit on us from above.

Look up! Look up! Look up to the sky
Don't be weary and wonder why
We are the children, beloved of God
We are the ones that will be His rod.
