Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #248 (2013) Meter: 9.10.7.7 First Line: We are your people, Spirit of grace Lyrics: 1 We are your people, Spirit of grace;
you dare to make us to all our neighbors
Christ's living voice, hands, and face;
Christ's living voice, hands, and face.
2 Joined in community, treasured and fed,
may we discover gifts in each other,
willing to lead and be led;
willing to lead and be led.
3 Rich in diversity, help us to live
closer than neighbors, open to strangers,
able to clash and forgive;
able to clash and forgive.
4 Glad of tradition, help us to see
in all life's changing where you are leading,
where our best efforts should be;
where our best efforts should be.
5 Give, as we venture, justice and care
(peaceful, resisting, waiting, or risking)
wisdom to know when and where;
wisdom to know when and where.
6 Spirit, unite us; make us, by grace,
willing and ready, Christ's living body,
loving the whole human race;
loving the whole human race. Topics: The Church; Unity and Fellowship Scripture: Romans 12 Languages: English Tune Title: SPIRIT-PRAYER
