You have called us out of darkest night

YOU HAVE CALLED US OUT OF DARKEST NIGHT
into your glorious light,
that we may sing the wonders of
the risen Christ.

2 May our every breath retell the grace
that broke into our strife
with boundless love and deepest joy,
with endless life.

May the peoples praise you, let the nations be glad!
All your blessing comes that we may praise,
may praise the name of Jesus.

3 All the earth is yours and all within,
each harvest is your own,
and from your hand we give to you
to make Christ known.

4 May the seeds of mercy grow in us
for those who have not heard;
may songs of praise build lives of grace
to spread your word.

May the peoples praise you…

5 This our holy privilege: to declare
your praises and your name;
to every nation, tribe and tongue
your church proclaims.

May the peoples praise you…

Bridge:
Holy, holy is the Lord Almighty;
worthy, worthy is the Lamb who was slain.
Holy, holy is the Lord Almighty:
all creation praise your glorious name.

May the peoples praise you… (sing twice)
