Verse 1
Praise the Lord, rise up rejoicing,
worship, thanks, devotion voicing:
glory be to God on high!
Christ, your cross and passion sharing,
by this feast we are declaring
your eternal victory.
Verse 2
Scattered flock, one shepherd sharing,
lost and lonely, one voice hearing,
ears are open to your word.
By your blood new life receiving,
in your body true believing,
we are yours and you the Lord.
Verse 3
Send us forth alert and living,
sins forgiven, wrongs forgiving,
in your Spirit strong and free.
Finding love in all creation,
bringing peace in every nation,
may we faithful followers be.
