When the kindness of our God
Was revealed in Jesus,
With compassion and with love were we born.
In the spirit of that love life abounds with thankfulness,
For the gift we know in Jesus, the Christ.
Chorus:
May the grace of God be ever in our life;
With a song may gratitude become our home.
Alleluia, Alleluia. Alleluia, Alleluia.
As we look into the deep,
Silent spaces beyond time,
Hope is kindled bright for what we shall be.
For in all that we have seen,
Known and loved with eyes of faith
Shall be woven into life never to die.
Chorus
With the gentleness of peace,
Born in love of God as friend,
So much healing and forgiveness shall we know.
And with peace is sure to come
Such a deep, abiding joy
Which the many deaths of life cannot dispel.
Chorus
In diverse and sundry ways
Of the past did God reveal
Something of the love in which life can thrive.
But in Jesus did this love
Come to fullness for all time
And in him we are alive with spirit joy.
