The church of Christ is calling us to make the dream come true: a world redeemed by Christ-like love; all life in Christ made new. 3 In gratitude and humble trust we bring our best today to serve your cause and share your love with all along life’s way. O God, who gave yourself to us in Jesus Christ your Son, teach us to give ourselves each day until life's work is done. Used With Tune: FOREST GREEN
