Author: Jeffery Rowthorn, b. 1934 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 43 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:21 Lyrics: 1 Lord, you give the great commission:
"Heal the sick and preach the word."
Lest the church neglect its mission
And the gospel go unheard,
Help us witness to your purpose

Give us all new fervor, draw us
Closer in community:
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.

Let us all, for earth's true glory,
Daily lift life heavenward,
Asking that the world around us
Share your children's liberty:
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.
4 Lord, you show us love's true measure:
"Father, what they do, forgive."
Yet we hoard as private treasure
All that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
To a just society:
With the Spirit's gifts empow'r us
For the work of ministry.
5 Lord, you bless with words assuring:
"I am with you to the end."
Faith and hope and love restoring,
May we serve as you intend
And, amid the cares that claim us,
Hold in mind eternity:

God in the Gospel,
hope seen in Jesus,
hope yet to come,
you are our center,
daylight or darkness,
freedom or prison,
you are our home.
Refrain:
Fresh as the morning,
sure as the sunrise,
God always faithful,
you do not change.
Fresh as the morning,
sure as the sunrise,
God always faithful,
you do not change.
2 God in our struggles,
God in our hunger,
suffering with us,
taking our part,
still you empower us,
mothering Spirit,
feeding, sustaining,
from your own heart. [Refrain]
3 Those without status,
those who are nothing,
you have made royal,
gifted with rights,
chosen as partners,
midwives of justice,
birthing new systems,
lighting new lights. [Refrain]
4 Not by your finger,
not by your anger
will our world order
change in a day,
but by your people,
fearless and faithful,
small paper lanterns,
lighting the way. [Refrain]
5 Hope we must carry,
shining and certain
through all our turmoil,
terror, and loss,
bonding us gladly
one to the other,
till our world changes
facing the cross. [Refrain]
