Lyrics:
Sing alleluia! Amen! Let your prayers and praises ascend.
Lift up your voices and sing To our Lord God, our Savior and King
Here brought together by grace We are gathered as friends in this place.
Refrain
And assembled as one, In the name of the Son,
Lifting hearts, lifting hands, Celebrating as friends,
And proclaiming the Lord, All our praises afford.
We are brothers and sisters in Christ.
Man walked alone and in need Without faith, hope or promise or creed;
Wandering, aimlessly lost, Unaware of the staggering cost:
That God in his mercy would save All his people from death and the grave. Refrain
Lord, teach us how to proclaim
All your goodness, your love and your name!
Lord, teach us how to forgive And in love, teach us, Lord, how to live.
Raising our voices in song, Help us tell all the world we belong. Refrain
