filling all our lives with love and joy and peace.
May the God of justice speed us on our way,
bringing light and hope to every land and race.
[Refrain:]
Praying, let us work for peace;
singing, share our joy with all;
working for a world that’s new,
faithful when we hear Christ’s call.
2 May the God of healing free the earth from fear,
freeing us for peace, both treasured and pursued.
May the God of love keep our commitment clear
to a world restored, to human life renewed.
