Through her our saviour came, Love’s revelation,
For God was in the midst of her, and now
We too are called, in every generation
To find in him our hope and strength, though
Everything around us falls apart,
And all our towering schemes have been laid low
Now is the time to take his truth to heart
And to be glad within the holy place
That he himself has made in us. To start
Each day with him, abiding in his grace
As he abides with us. To know his peace
To turn towards his light and seek his face
And let his flowing spirit find release
And flow through us into his weary world
That wrongs may be redressed and wars may cease.
