TO GIVE AS YOU GAVE, TO LOVE AS YOU LOVED
We will follow where You lead
To walk as You walked, to serve as You served
We will follow where You lead
We pour out our lives in worship
Pour out our lives for You
Let your kingdom come, let Your will be done
Here on the earth, here on the earth
Give us eyes to see, the courage to believe
Here on the earth, here on the earth
Bringing justice, loving mercy, walking humbly, with our God
