Now we sing to praise love's blessing
all through our lives,
laughter, joy, surprise confessing,
all through our lives.
Love that dreamed a new creation,
love that dared an incarnation,
love that offers transformation
all through our lives.
How our wounds ache for love's healing
all through our days.
How our world needs love's revealing,
in all its ways.
Fearful hearts suspect the stranger,
hardened nations arm for danger,
love lives on, the powerful changer,
all through our days.
Love's the grace that makes us caring
all through our lives,
urges us to warmth and sharing
all through our lives,
speaks in us, oppression naming,
strives in us, injustice shaming,
lives in us, true peace proclaiming
all through our lives.
Love's the clown that mock at winning
all through the world,
midwife of each new beginning
all through the world.
In the struggles that confound us,
in the chaos all around us
love's wide arms with hope surround us
all through the world.
