Lord,
1. You make us all from love
And dust.
2. Help us to follow Christ,
And learn to trust
3. That his forgiveness
Cleanses all our sins –
4. Then we will know the peace
Salvation brings.
Lord,
5. You make us all for love
And loss.
6. Help us to face our lives,
Take up our cross,
7. Serve you in all we meet,
And spread your grace –
8. Then we will share your joy,
And see your face.
