Lord, you give to us
The precious gift of life,
A stewardship for every husband,
every wife.
Lord, you give us
Not only flesh and blood,
But mind and heart and soul
to know that they are good.
Lord, you offer us
The water, bread and wine;
By faith we reach
to find your love within the sign.
Lord, you offer us
New life that never ends;
You suffer, serve, and die,
and live to call us friends.
Lord, you ask of us
A death to what we knew;
Then, rising in your name,
we’ll put our trust in you.
Lord, you share with us
Our hope for what will be;
With us prepare each child by love,
your love to see.
